Media Accreditation for photographers and videographers

Media accreditation for photographers and videographers wishing to cover Silverstone Festival 2025 is now open.

Accreditation requests are considered for professional media who have been commissioned by a relevant third party to cover the event on its behalf. Public liability insurance is required to a minimum of £5 million for photographers and £10 million for videographers. Filming trackside is not permitted. Filming of the track action is exclusive to the event’s production partner, Aurora Media Worldwide.

For individuals who are gathering content for their own portfolio or for commercial purposes, tickets can be purchased for the event here. Please note that allocation of accreditation does not permit the sale of images for commercial purposes – editorial use only.

Influencers with a significant social media following may be considered for accreditation and are invited to contact press@silverstone.co.uk for further details.

Editorial support, help with setting-up interviews, or other specific media requirements can be accommodated. Please email Jonathan Gill. We are always pleased to provide content to assist your coverage of Silverstone Festival.

Media accreditation is available for photographers and videographers working in a professional capacity with an editorial brief and strictly NOT on the basis of commercial use.
