MEDIA CREDENTIALS

Given the popularity and reputation of the Dublin Irish Festival, there is a high demand for entrance to the Festival. We’ve established the following policies regarding Media Credentials and coverage for the Festival:
  • Only members of the Media assigned to cover the Festival from a recognized media outlet may qualify for a Media Credential. Journalists with no supporting articles will not be considered.
  • The Dublin Irish Festival defines “media” as: journalists, photographers, editors, or producers who have a verified and specific editorial assignment to cover the Festival for a specific media outlet (print, radio, TV) that generates original articles or reviews on general entertainment, music, news, travel, etc.
  • Media Credential holders are asked to be mindful of Festival guests and to limit filming and photography to the first three songs of each entertainer’s set, if possible.
  • Bloggers and web journalists’ media requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
  • Advertising personnel, marketing and sales associates, runners or guests, and other similar support staff employed by media outlets do not qualify for Media Credentials.
  • All applicants will be contacted about the approval or denial of their credential request. A separate request must be submitted for each person requesting credentials. Media credentials are non-transferrable.
  • If a media professional has not acquired the proper credentials, professional photography and/or videography is strictly prohibited at all Dublin Irish Festival events. This exclusion includes DSLR equipment.
  • The Dublin Irish Festival staff maintains the right to issue, deny or revoke Media Credentials at its discretion, at any time.
  • By participating in the Dublin Irish Festival, you agree that all professional photos/video taken are solely owned by the Dublin Irish Festival.
