A Press Pass provides access to the ticketed areas of the festival and the press lounge only. The Photo Pass allows access to the ticketed areas of the festival, the press lounge and into the photo pits at the discretion of festival producers, music talent and thought talent. Video Pass access is determined by coverage plan and committee approval.
TELEVISION AND RADIO STATIONS: Be as specific as possible about coverage plans, and any on-site broadcasting you wish to do. This includes onsite team size and equipment accommodations. Each team member will be required to submit an application for appropriate pass.
PRINT AND ONLINE MEDIA: Priority will be given to applications which include full details about reach, audience, volume and circulation. If more than one member of your team will be required for the assignment, please indicate this in the coverage plan. Each member is required to submit an application for the appropriate pass.
PHOTOGRAPHY: Any photographer wishing to apply for a photo pass must be on assignment. We will only credential photographers with SLR, detachable lens cameras. Point-and-shoot cameras will not be permitted in the photo pits, a policy enforced by security.
VIDEOGRAPHY: Video cameras are approved on a very limited basis. Of those approved, video camera use is restricted to the media area and on-site with an escort from the festival. You will be required to request escort time in advance of the festival.
