Speaker Guests
For speakers who want guests to attend their talk or technical check, we offer a ‘Speaker Guest’ Pass (€495+TVA).
This grants a guest access to the Festival for the full day of the speaker’s talk or technical check and the awards show taking place that night. The Speaker Guest Pass can only be purchased for the day of the session or technical check. You can purchase more than one Speaker Guest Pass per talk. Please email the Content Operations team to help.
Key entourage needed for the successful delivery of the talk can gain access to the technical check or the talk with this pass. Please contact the Content Operations team to discuss this further.
Please note, the above is at the discretion of the Content Operations team.
