Media Registration

Media badges give you access to the NAMM Press Room at the show, all exhibits, NAMM University Breakfast Sessions and Idea Center Sessions as well as some exhibitor-sponsored events.

Pre-Registration for the 2010 NAMM Show is by invitation-only. If you have not received an invitation, but would like to cover the NAMM Show, please e-mail us for more information.

On-site Media Registration:

Media who have not pre-registered for media badges may register at show site by visiting the NAMM Press Room located inside the lobby of the Anaheim Convention Center. Media registering on show site shall be required to have a photo ID, a valid media business card and a letter of assignment from the editor outlining how the show will be covered. In addition, you must present your coverage of NAMM last year, as well as a recent copy of your publication. If you cannot provide the required items, you will not be admitted to the show. There are no exceptions. Please bring these items to the Press Room inside the convention center lobby during on-site media registration hours.

** If you have previously registered online and have been denied credentials, you will not be registered onsite.

NAMM defines "media" as follows:

Any writer, photographer, editor or producer with a specific editorial assignment to cover the show for a media outlet that is related to the music products industry. (This includes all media outlets that regularly cover musical instruments, products and NAMM Member companies.) Note: Consumer media outlets (national print, TV, radio) will be admitted on a case-by-case basis.

NOTE: All advertising sales representatives, publishers and marketing staff employed by media outlets will not be admitted to the show as media. Depending on the type of business, these individuals can apply for NAMM Membership.
