MEDIA ACCREDITATION

2025 Adelaide Equestrian Festival Media Accreditation Guidelines

To cover the 2025 Adelaide Equestrian Festival, representatives of media organisations may apply for media accreditation. Interested parties are required to complete our online application form by the required deadline (Friday 14 March, 2025). Organisers of the 2025 Adelaide Equestrian Festival are solely responsible for determining which organisations and individuals receive accreditation.

​

Previous accreditation is no guarantee of a repeat in 2025 or in the future. All media approved for accreditation at the 2025 event will receive free access to the event as well as access to the Media Centre. Information and results will be available for all accredited media, as are nightly press conferences with the leading riders of the CCI5*. Tea and coffee making facilities.

​​

FEI rules prohibit media from accessing the stables, however, the Adelaide Equestrian Festival media officers may be able to facilitate interviews with riders. Each accredited media operator will be issued with an accreditation pass which MUST be worn and displayed at all times. Any media in the designated media areas without accreditation WILL BE REMOVED by security. Personnel who do not comply with the directions of competition officials may be removed from the event and their accreditation immediately revoked.

​

PLEASE NOTE

​

Video: Media Accreditation to cover the Adelaide Equestrian Festival will be granted on the condition that you agree not to shoot any video of the competition that may breach our partner rights that relate to:-

 

  • Mediums where it may appear on TV, satellite, cable, or even digital streaming platforms.

  • Content generally intended for a mass audience, not just individuals or small groups.

 

Please be advised that posting of competition video on any website or social media page without adhering to the above or our Commercial Photography/Videography guidelines will be cause for revoking your credential and possible legal action.

​

Still Photography: Any commercial photography, or advertisement thereof, taken of the competition or otherwise at the event, without prior written consent from event management is expressly forbidden. Providing complimentary photos to exhibitors is also prohibited. Violation of these rules will be grounds for immediate removal from the premises and possible legal action.

​

Commercial Photographers/Videographers not assigned to a media assignment need to read our Commercial Photographers/Videographers policy here.

Application process

Confirmation of Media Accreditation

Following the application deadline, the 2025 Adelaide Equestrian Festival will process all received applications. Applicants will be notified if they have been successful in gaining media accreditation.

​

Receiving Media Accreditation Pass

Media Accreditation Passes will be available for collection from the Media Centre on Wednesday 30 April between 12pm and 2pm or on Thursday 1 May from 8.30am to 4.00pm. Passes must be worn at all times and especially to gain access to the event site and Media Centre.

​

We seek your cooperation in ensuring the accreditation guidelines are respected. The safety of those involved in the event is our prime concern and we are certain all media will be able to do their jobs within the guidelines. A breach of the guidelines or refusal to follow the reasonable direction of the Event Organisers and security will result in the immediate forfeit of accreditation.
