Press accreditation applications are now open for Glasgow Film Festival 2026 (25 February – 8 March).
Accredited members of the press will be first to receive press releases and updates, as well as access to digital screeners, in-person P&I screenings, and select public screenings. Accredited media will also be considered for access to the GFF red carpet press pen, subject to capacity for each red carpet.
Press accreditation is available to individuals who work for print, broadcast, or online media outlets across the UK and internationally, and applications will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. We also welcome applications from student journalists, content creators, and bloggers. We have a limited number of press passes, and accreditation is not guaranteed.
You will be required to provide information on your media outlet and examples of previous coverage from the last six months as part of your application. Please ensure you complete all parts of the accreditation form, as we cannot process incomplete applications.
Press accreditation is open until 5pm on Friday 13 February. You will hear from the GFF Press team within 14 days of submitting your application. If you have any questions, please contact
