Accreditation Request
Media representatives who wish to obtain accreditation for the YONEX German Open should complete the relevant accreditation form and send it together with a portrait photo to Claudia Pauli (see above). She will also send all applicants a response to their accreditation request.
The accreditation deadline for the YONEX German Open 2026 is February 9, 2026.
Accreditation can only be collected from the first day of the event (in 2026, this will be February 24). It will be available at the press center in the Westenergie Sports Hall.
Accredited media representatives can access the Westenergie Sports Hall via the “athletes’ entrance” located to the left of the hall.
Please note: Accreditation can only be obtained by persons who have a recognized, valid press card or a written assignment to report on behalf of an editorial office (daily newspaper, radio station, online editorial office, etc.).
Press Center
Accredited media representatives will have the opportunity to work in the press center in the Westenergie Sports Hall during the event week. Workstations (desks, chairs, power outlets, Wi-Fi, etc.) will be set up there. The opening hours of the press center during the event week will be published here one week before the tournaments starts.
Accredited media representatives can also follow the action on the playing fields from the stands or gallery.
During the event week, a team of several contact persons will be available to all accredited media representatives in the press center to answer any questions about the tournament (e.g., workspaces in the press center, walking routes in the hall for photographers, schedule, “special program items”).
