Edinburgh International Film Festival will be presenting a compact programme of bold contemporary UK and international features and short films, creating spaces for audiences to have deeper encounters with cinema as an art form. This programme is hosted as part of the Edinburgh International Festival, which has a world-class artistic programme and extensive media reach.

EIFF would like to welcome international and UK members of the press, working across all media, to participate in our special, celebratory programme.

Press Accreditation is free and will include:

• Six tickets for public screenings (subject to availability)
• Invitations to in-person press screenings
• Concession price tickets for public screenings and events
• Access to press materials

The full programme for this year’s Festival will be announced in early July.

Accreditation will be granted by the Press Team at The Corner Shop PR to active media representatives only. There is no deadline for accreditation, however we recommend registering no later than Wednesday 9 August 2023 to allow time for your application to be processed and ensure your Pass is prepared before the Festival begins on Friday 18 August 2023.
