Press + Media

Press + Media at Centerfest

Centerfest has grown into something new — and with that growth comes a little more structure (the good kind).

Because now host international touring artists, credentialed press, licensing, releases, and protected production zones, all non-festival press must apply in advance if you plan to cover the festival, conduct interviews, record performances, or create editorial content on site.

This protects:

  • the artists
  • the audience
  • the festival
  • and the integrity of everyone's work

So if you are media, press, influencer, videographer, photographer, blogger, or publication not working directly with the Centerfest team, you'll need to apply at least 60 days in advance to be considered for access.

This allows us to:

  • Coordinate artist approvals
  • Schedule interviews properly
  • Handle releases and licensing
  • Provide designated press areas
  • Avoid disruption to performances and guest experience

Showing up day-of with a camera and a press badge isn't enough anymore — and honestly, that's a good thing. It means Centerfest is operating at a level that respects both artists and media professionals.
