Journalists from all over the world will be able to request a credential for the Rio Media Center (RMC), the city’s reference center for journalists accredited or not by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to cover the Rio 2016 Games.

The deadline to register for a credential is April 29. To do so, visit www.riomediacenter.com.br/en/ and as a first step, register at the 2016 Rio Media Center website, then follow to the requests area.

A 2,700m2 building, the Rio Media Center will offer desk space with cable and hi-speed Wi-Fi internet, satellite signal for live broadcasting and radio & TV studios. The venue will work 24/7, it is fully accessible and will host up to 600 professionals simultaneously. The center will have a 300-pax multi-functional auditorium, two TV studios and six radio studios.

The RMC will also offer free, exclusive standup locations in touristic spots around the city, with their use subject to prior schedule request. There will be around 15 press areas scattered in strategic regions, offering iconic scenario as a background for live broadcasting.

The location is centric and strategic, less than 200 mts from the Cidade Nova (line 2) and Estácio (line 1) subway stations – offering connection to the rail system and to the LRT (Light Rail Transit). Last but not the least; the center is also close to several bus lines from where one may reach any spot in the city.
