YumeConUSA offers complimentary badges to members of the press looking to cover YumeConUSA events.
The basic requirements to obtain a press pass are:
- Part of a press outlet or media channel making content about conventions or associated topics, with at least 3 months of history at the time of application.
- Able and willing to post at least 1 piece of press or media relating to YumeConUSA within 30 days of the completion of the event.
Press passes are not transferrable, and are offered on a case-by-case basis. Meeting the basic requirements does not guarantee acceptance. Each person looking for a press pass should submit their own application, even if they are coming from the same media channel. Press passes do not automatically grant additional access beyond standard attendee badges- members of the press looking for special access, interviews, etc. should make specific requests to the YumeConUSA team at press@yumeconusa.com.
