We recognise the important part that the media plays in making Antigua Sailing Week such a success. We want to help you in all possible ways so that you can show the world what a wonderful event this is and what a beautiful island Antigua is. Please find below all the information about accreditation, registration, press conferences, press releases and our media boats, hotels service etc. 

Tanya Edwards and our press team will be ready to help you with all your media-related needs.

ACCREDITATION FORMS

We ask that you provide us with your details by filling in an accreditation form. Click here to fill in the form. We cannot guarantee you accommodation but if you would like to contact the Antigua Hotels and Tourist Association we will endeavour to help you find something suitable. Please remember that hotels are very full at this time, so send it to us at your earliest convenience, as we will not be able to guarantee anything at last minute. 

MEDIA REGISTRATION HOURS

Media registration will take place in the Copper & Lumber Store in the Nelson's Dockyard between 5pm and 6pm on Friday 25th April. This will be followed by a press briefing. It is important that members of the media try to attend this event as important information will be given out. 

MEDIA BOATS

Two Media boats will be available each day for working media personnel wishing to get close to the action. Boats will leave from the race start location (Falmouth, Heritage Quay (Day 2) or Jolly Harbour) , exact times will be confirmed at the press briefing.

Gillian is in charge of placing people on boats and will be glad to help you. The initial allocation for media boats will be made during registration. If you should want to change your plans, and would like to be put on (if we have any places left) or taken off the list after all, please let us know as soon as possible at the media desk in the Event Village.

RACE RESULTS

Provisional race results will be available daily from the media centre as soon as they are made available to us by the race committee. On the final day, race results for that day will be publicly posted as usual. The press will however be given the final cumulative results as soon as possible, so they may conduct interviews.
