Friday 6 March 2015
Baku, Azerbaijan
Baku 2015 is today pleased to announce an official extension to the press accreditation deadline for this summer’s inaugural European Games.
The original deadline was Friday 6 March but in response to high press interest, and many requests for more time to submit applications, the deadline has been extended by four weeks to Friday 3 April.
Press representatives interested in covering Baku 2015 are encouraged to apply before this final deadline as accreditations beyond this date will not be accepted. Once approved, international press will be sent a pre-valid card which will serve as their visa to enter Azerbaijan.
Press are also encouraged to book their rooms in the newly constructed Media Village (50 euro per night including breakfast and 65 euro per night for a twin room) as spaces are limited. The Media Village is adjacent to the Athletes’ Village and will serve as a transport hub for all venues and provide working and catering facilities.
Please email pressoperations@baku2015.com to request a press accreditation form before 3 April 2015.
