If you are interested in attending Pacific Media Expo as a member of the press, we feature three different press badge classifications and privileges based on your organization’s qualifications:
If you are approved as an official member of Press, you have agreed to the PMX Press Policies and Guidelines. Failure to adhere to the Press Policies and Guidelines will result in an immediate revocation of the complimentary press badge and its privileges.
To Register
1. Determine which level of press you qualify for. Please see below for qualifications and privileges.
2. Submit a Press Pass Registration form. You must submit your online application no later than 11:59 PM Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) on November 1, 2013 in order to be considered. Press members who miss the deadline will be charged a $20 at-con Press Badge fee. On-site registrations will be approved or denied at the discretion of Pacific Media Expo® and are bound to the same restrictions as online registrants.
**Note: Due to the high number of Press applications, organizations will be limited to receiving up to four (4) complimentary press passes only. Additional passes can be purchased at-con for a discounted rate of $20 for the full convention weekend. All additional passes are still subject to the convention review process.
3. Provide proof of your relationship with the organization you registered with, in the form of links to staff lists, your byline, scanned business cards, letters of assignment on official letterheads, etc., along with links or attachments of previous works when you submit your Press Pass Registration form.
4. Wait. Please allow at least five (5) business days for your application to be processed. Once your application has been received, we will review your submission and qualifications. You will be notified via e-mail if your application is approved or denied. In either case, you will be provided with information on how to proceed next.
**TIP: To expedite your submission review, please provide proof of your publications, articles, videos, photos, etc., after applying along with your web registration code, by using this contact form.
