We appreciate your interest in our event. As organizers of AniNite, we appreciate your media support. That’s why we want to make it as easy as possible for you to access information about our event. Accreditation also gives you information about our association and access to the event itself.

However, please understand that due to the constantly high demand, we can only grant accreditations to a limited extent and after a thorough examination of your data, and only in accordance with the rules set out below.

If you require accreditation, please contact our press team using the contact form .

The following persons may receive press accreditation

  • Media representatives from Germany or abroad who can prove their journalistic or photojournalistic activities as follows:
    • The submission of original name articles that are not older than 6 months or that were created as part of an AniManga Austria event.
    • By submitting an original imprint in which they are named as editors, permanent editorial staff or authors.
    • By submitting a written and signed order from an editorial office in the original with a thematic reference to the current event.
    • Holders of a valid and officially recognized press card whose editorial assignment has a direct thematic connection to the event.
  • By submitting a web link to a self-created online publication that is established in the respective, thematically relevant event public. Media representatives who demonstrably report regularly on the relevant event and thus contribute significantly to the success of the event in the media. Copies of the published articles and / or web links must be enclosed with the accreditation application.

Photography and filming

  • Photography and filming are only permitted in the context of journalistic reporting. Any commercial use beyond this is excluded.
  • If images are published, AniManga Austria must be named as the organizer and AniNite as the event.
  • Live broadcasting of events or parts of events is generally prohibited. Exceptions must be agreed with the organizers (e.g. live announcements).
  • The stage program may only be filmed from the audience area. Only excerpts may be published.
  • Personal rights must not be violated.

Please note that sending or submitting event-related supporting documents will significantly speed up the review of your accreditation application and result in a positive response. In addition, we reserve the right to verify proof of journalistic activity, even in the case of presentation of a valid and officially recognized press card. In individual cases, the presentation of a valid identity document with photo (ID card, passport, driver’s license) may also be required. There is no right to accreditation. Inclusion in our press distribution list does not automatically mean receipt of a press ticket.

By issuing a press ticket, we ask you to send us all your reports after publication.

We would like to thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation.

About us

For several years now, AniNite has established itself as a fixed meeting place for those interested in and fans of Japanese youth and pop culture, both at home and abroad. This fan convention with festival character is organized by AniManga, the umbrella organization of Austrian anime and manga clubs.
Supra-regional events of this kind (organized and held by fans for fans) are called conventions. AniNite is one of the largest conventions in the German-speaking world.
AniNite is organized on a voluntary basis by members and friends of the AniManga Austria association. Individual program items are carried out in cooperation with our long-standing partners. They partly take over the organization of parts of the AniNite.
