We report the results of a search in the MACHO light-curve database that aims to find new cataclysmic variables. The targets were selected from variables toward the Magellanic Clouds and Galactic bulge using as main criteria the amplitude of photometric variability and color indices. These criteria provided a total of 3720 variables that were visually inspected for novae, recurrent novae, or dwarf novae eruptions. Dwarf novae type outbursts were recognized in 28 objects, while a second sample of 38 less probable candidates was also selected. Some characteristics of the light curves of the cataclysmic variables identified are described, and when possible, a classification in a subtype is assigned to the system. The coordinates of each selected target were cross correlated against X-ray survey databases in order to search for possible point-source identifications. The detected dwarf novae in the direction of the bulge are probable members of the Galactic disk population.
