    Hi.
    First- try write directly to organizer of events, most situation it helps.Not for U2,Rugby final etc…
    Second- there is no agency with golden permint (but if you are CNBC photographer it might be easier:)
    Press Agencies- google -email or walk in or some online press agencies (similar to istock)
    You need to be more bussinesman than photographer for it (need lot’s of time)
    regards,
    Darek Novak

    Not really, for example there are photographers who get a photo pass for the entire Formula 1 season so I wouldn´t be surprised if more organizers offered something similar.

    It’s more common for sporting organisations to issue “seasonal press accreditation”, but this would not be the case for concerts and such, where you would have to apply event by event.

    thanks guys for this useful debate and if you dont mind more questions will follow. do the organisers of the events have any special conditions: like a previous experiences, portfolio and so on? or is it general or tender or something different ? i would be happy for some examples, pls. thank you a lot. have a nice day

    Their only condition is that you must do some advertising for the organizer and you must have enough readers/visitors who will see these adverts. There may be some who will ask you to give them the photos on a DVD but it´s not very common.
