MEDIA APPLICATION & CONTACTS
For all general press enquiries please contact: press@pokerstars.com.
For a schedule of when to apply for media accreditation for each event, please refer to the table located at the bottom of this page. Due to a high volume of applicants no applications will be considered after the closing date.
Please read the Media Guidelines carefully before applying for EPT media accreditation to any EPT event.
Please note that submitting a media accreditation application does not automatically allocate you a media seat or floor pass.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION RE. PHOTOGRAPHY / FILMING
Please note that no one is allowed to take pictures or film inside the casino or the poker tournament area at Casino Vilamoura. If this rule is infringed it could result in the closure of the EPT. Anyone who breaks this rule will immediately be removed from the casino and banned from all future PokerStars live events.
We have set up a special media booth inside Vilamoura Casino where media can meet players they wish to photograph or video. Please ask about this at the press registration desk. Photos and video are allowed outside the casino, just not the tournament area.
