Have yourself accredited for LOPEC here
Online accreditation
To get your free press ticket even in advance to the trade fair, please register here online for LOPEC. Please have a proof of your work as a journalist as pdf- or jpg-file (max. 1 MB) ready. In case your file is bigger than 1 MB, please send it to press@messe-muenchen.de and use the subject „accreditation LOPEC 2023“.
Once your information has been verified, you will receive your Print@home ticket by e-mail. You will then need to print out your ticket and bring it with you to the trade fair. Your Print@home ticket will give you free access for the entire duration of the event.
Accreditation on-site
During LOPEC you can also obtain accreditation on-site at our Press Counter. You can reach the Press Counter via the passage from the West Entrance to Hall B0 and on to the ICM - Internationales Congress Center München.
Important information on accreditation
You will need to provide evidence that you are a journalist when applying for accreditation online (by uploading) or at the venue (by showing a hard copy). For more information, please refer to the accreditation guidelines of Messe München.
Proofs can include:

- An article published under your name that is no more than 6 months old (for photographers: Photo credit)
Please refer to the Messe München accreditation guidelines.
