Press Application Guidelines

To receive press credentials to cover Kollision Con, applicants must first pass a screening process.
The process is based upon planned coverage, examples of previous Kollision or similar event coverage, a valid press pass (if applicable) and photo I.D., and other information as requested by Kollision's Press Relations department.

Each approved organization will receive up to two complimentary Press badges which allow full weekend access to the convention.

Extra Press badges will be provided only where applicants can provide a demonstrated need for more. All press badges must be obtained through the Press registration process. Press access will not be given to any individuals who are not approved for a Press badge.

All applicants must re-apply for Press privilages annually, as they are valid only for the current year, and do not carry over.

To apply, please contact Press@KollisionCon.com.

Limitations on Press Access

Guests may restrict photography or recording during their appearances. These restrictions extend to members of the press, unless otherwise stated prior to the event in writing by the performer.

Press membership does not carry preferential treatment at any event or programming during the convention.

Registered members of Press must obey all Kollision policies.

Registered members of Press must arrange for and finance their own travel, room arrangements, and food.



Proper Behavior of Registered Press

Registered members of Press are reminded to conduct themselves in a professional manner when acting in a press capacity.

Professional behavior includes, but is not limited to: showing respect to guests, staff and other participants; showing up early for scheduled interviews or press events, or notifying Kollision Press Relations department of any delays; and complying to all photo restrictions, as conveyed by Kollision staff or by the guests themselves.

Any abuse of press privileges will not be tolerated, and is grounds for having Press privilge membership revoked.

Note: Submission of an application does not guarantee a Press pass. If you are granted Press access to the event, please be prepared to identify yourself at the convention with a valid I.D.
