MEDIA & PRESS APPLICATIONS

We’re excited to welcome members of the media to Down By The River, a celebration of music, community, and creativity. If you're interested in covering the festival for print, digital, radio, photo, or video media, please complete the application form.

Submission does not guarantee accreditation. Due to high demand, we’ll only be issuing a limited number of media passes.

Media & Press Applications are open from April 16 to September 10, 2026.

Please note: We are primarily looking for volunteer-based media and content collaborators. While a small number of paid opportunities may be considered in exceptional cases, most paid roles have already been filled. If you're passionate about the festival and excited to contribute creatively, we’d love to hear from you!
