– Radio: 4 seats per outlet (including technical staff) – YouTube channels: 2 seats per channel – Print newspaper / website: 2 seats per outlet – TV channel: 2 seats per broadcaster

Important: according to the competition’s Club Manual, broadcast booths “must be fully available to CONMEBOL, and their use must be prioritized according to its criteria.” Clube Atlético Mineiro will notify outlets in advance and appreciates their understanding if their booth is requested by the organizers.

ATTENTION: filling out this form does not guarantee approval of accreditation. Professionals approved to cover the match will be notified by email on Monday, May 18.

During the application process, it is necessary to provide full name, CPF or passport number, media outlet, role, phone number, email, and press association registration number (if applicable). Foreign journalists must provide their passport number.

Photographers:

Photographers must be accredited up to a maximum of 50 professionals, following the same criteria as journalists. Professionals must position themselves behind the goals, with prior guidance from the match’s press supervisor.

GUIDELINES

The number of accredited press professionals authorized will depend on the number of seats made available by the stadium;
Only the rights holder may film the match. No other broadcaster and/or outlet will be allowed to record videos from the field of play;
Only professionals from the rights-holding broadcaster may remain on the pitch;
There will be a mixed zone at the stadium after the match, with physical separation between broadcast rights holders and the rest of the press (TV/non-rights-holding digital media, radio, and print media), and the latter may not broadcast live.
The post-match press conference will be held in person. First with the visiting team’s coach. Then, likewise, with the home team’s coach.
Accredited journalists from different media outlets may attend the press conference. Photographers may access the mixed zone and the press conference, but priority will be given to journalists.
Only the competition’s rights-holding broadcasters may air the mixed zone and press conferences live. All other outlets must publish them only after all press activities at the stadium have concluded.

PRESS ACCESS
All press professionals enter Arena MRV through Gate G (TV Compound), located at: Rua Cristina Maria de Assis, number 410. There, at the end of the parking lot, there is a single elevator that provides access to floor/level -1.
This is where journalists are accredited. After this step, the press should go to the end of the corridor on level -1 to reach another elevator for exclusive use, which will take those with access to the press box to level 5. To access the pitch, commentators may use the same elevator (level -2) or the stairs.
The press bar is on the third floor
