Press Room

If you are interested in covering or attending Fantastic Fest or AMD Fantastic Fest Online as a member of the press.  Please email us with your details, what publication/media outlet for whom you will be reporting and a member of the Fantastic Fest staff will get back with you about your request.

Approved press credential requests will be given a press badge good for access to all events, subject to availability.  During the festival, we will have press screenings of the major film events.  Reviews from the press screenings may not be posted until after the public screening later that night.
