TORONTO (October 26, 2020) — The Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) is accepting expressions of interest for media accreditation to the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022.

Canadian media are asked to complete and submit the form at olympic.ca/press-accreditation by Friday, October 30, 2020 Please submit one expression of interest per organization.

Late submissions will not be considered.

Due to the limited quota of accreditations allocated by the International Olympic Committee (IOC), a selection criterion will be applied.

Procedure for ENRs (non-rights holding broadcasting media):

The IOC will be the responsible organization for distributing the ENR accreditations, in cooperation with the COC. The deadline for applications is November 9, 2020.

The ENR organizations will have full responsibility to apply directly to the IOC for accreditation within the required timelines and late requests will not be considered. Further questions can be directed to media.operations@olympic.org.
