FCIA invites the media to all of our events. We issue press badges to qualified media. All credential requests are subject to approval by FCIA management.

Working journalists in print, broadcast and digital media on assignment or conducting research for established publications and media outlets. This includes reporters, editors and publishers. Film crews and photographers must have proof of assignment.
Who Does Not Qualify? 
Friends and family of journalists; sales, marketing and advertising executives and other non-editorial media staff; company presidents, industry consultants, public relations professionals, writers for company newsletters and websites, and cookbook authors who are not working journalists.
On-Site Registration
Media registering on site at in-person events may be asked to provide evidence of current work about the fine chocolate industry for well-established media outlets. The same qualifications are required as for pre-registration.
