Press Registration

The EAU is happy to offer discretionary free-of-charge registration to journalists who work at a news organisation that features original, editorial news coverage, that has editorial freedom from advertisers and/or sponsors, and in which advertisers and/or sponsors are clearly identified as such.

In order to be accredited for the Congress, media representatives are expected to actively report on the 42nd Annual EAU Congress.

To be eligible for free press registration, applicants must write exclusively for the news organisation and should not be sponsored by any commercial organisation. For the verification of their status the following materials should be provided:

1. Letter verifying assignment to the 42nd Annual EAU Congress (EAU27) on the letterhead of the news organisation being represented.
2. Two bylined medical/health/science articles/videos/reports by the applicant published within the last year, coverage from the previous year’s meeting (if applicable), and a copy of the publication.
3. Media identification, such as an international, accredited press pass or an official media-outlet-issued credential, dated 2026-2027.

To apply for a press accreditation for the EAU27 Congress you can register via the online registration system, as of 1 October 2026.

To complete the online registration and to speed up the accreditation process, all applications should be accompanied by the required documents as listed under eligibility for verification. You can email the documents to the registration department.

Note: It is strongly recommended to apply for your press registration at least 2 weeks in advance. This enables us to deal with any queries or problems in time. If you apply later than 2 weeks in advance of the Congress, we cannot guarantee to have your application processed in time.

Besides the regular entitlements of delegates, journalists are entitled to the following extra benefits:

• Access to the EAU27 Resource Centre
  All accepted abstracts, posters and webcasts are freely accessible for accepted media. With the login credentials received together with your registration confirmation, you can log in and browse through all materials.
• Press Conferences (if available)
  Registered journalists will be informed of any scheduled press conferences and provided with information on how to attend.
• Access to the Press Centre
  Access to the press working room will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis and will be limited to two representatives per outlet unless otherwise noted. In the Press Centre free fixed and wireless internet access, a printer and photocopier are provided as well as coffee, tea and soft drinks.
• Access to the Opening Ceremony and Networking Reception, Exhibition and Scientific sessions.
• Press congress bag and the Programme-at-a-Glance.
• Interview Rooms
  Two interview rooms are located near the Press Centre. Each room is equipped with 2 chairs and 1 table plus an EAU27 banner. Journalists can book a preferred time slot on-site with the host/hostess at the Press Centre. No more than two timeslots per day per publication are accepted.
• Video Interview Area
  It is forbidden to film at the venue without permission. The EAU has assigned designated areas at central locations throughout the venue to record interviews. Accredited film crews can book a time slot (max 2 per day per publication) to film in one of the filming areas onsite via the hostess in the Press Centre. Film crews with permission will receive a special filming press badge.

Media outlets and press representatives are expected to abide by the full EAU Press Policy, and to make sure that any member of staff or any third parties acting on their behalf and / or under their authority comply with this Policy.
