Accreditation will only be granted to representatives of recognised media organisations or similar professional outlets. The same requirements apply to photographers.

On matchday, accreditation can be collected at Entrance 2. The media entrance is located on the side of the stadium at Entrance 2.

Press Rooms

Matchday accreditation can be collected at Entrance 2.

There are two press rooms at Lyse Arena: one for photographers and one for written press.

The press rooms will open two hours before kick-off and close 60 minutes after the final whistle.

Photographers will be allocated the room behind the press tribune, located in the museum corridor.

Written press will be accommodated on the third floor. Please use the staircase by Section Q of the stand to access the press room on the third floor.

Light refreshments will be available in the press rooms.

Media Seating

High media demand is expected for European fixtures. All accredited media representatives will be allocated a designated position upon arrival. We kindly ask everyone to respect their allocated position.

Photographers

Photographers may, as usual, work from the designated positions behind the goals at either end of the pitch.

Photographers may only change positions at half-time. Once you have taken up your position, please remain there throughout each half.

Moving images are reserved for the participating clubs and the official rights holder. Filming inside the stadium is therefore not permitted unless you are working on behalf of an authorised rights holder.

Photographers are expected to carry professional photographic equipment. Access may be refused if you arrive without appropriate professional equipment.
