Advance press accreditation for Crufts 2025 is now closed.
If you have not already registered for press accreditation for the event, then you
must do so at the show itself. Please be prepared accrediting on the day will take
time so please allow time in your schedule if you are hoping to watch a certain
competition. While waiting please remain patient and respectful to all staff and other
members of the press.
Please come to the Media Centre, which is located in the Toute Suite (opposite the
main entrance to the NEC). You will not need an entry ticket for the show to gain
access to the Media Centre as it is not within the show itself.
To be accepted for press accreditation at the show, you will need to produce the
following at the event:
• A currently valid press card – personal business cards will not be accepted
• Or a letter on headed paper from the head of the media organisation you are
representing
• Examples of your previous published work with your name on
• A digital copy of a headshot to be emailed to us or be happy to be photographed at
the event
Please note that registration will be refused without the appropriate documents being
produced.
Press registration at the show opens on Thursday 6th March at 7:45 AM and closes
on Sunday 9th March in the early evening.
