COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – A reminder that t

he United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee has opened requests for media accreditation to the Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024. U.S. press organizations must apply for accreditation via the application form by Dec. 1, 2022, to be considered for the initial allocation. The application, as well as additional details, for both the Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024 can be found here. If you have already submitted your request, you do not need to submit again. If you would like to verify that your application was received, please email Accreditation@usopc.org.

You will receive a confirmation email after submitting to keep for your records, and we expect to share allocation results early in 2023.
