TORONTO (October 11, 2024) — The Canadian Olympic Committee (COC) is accepting applications from interested non-rights holding broadcast media (television and radio)* for the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 until November 4, 2024. Late submissions will not be considered. 

Canadian non-rights holding media (ENR) are asked to complete and submit the form found here. Please submit one expression of interest form per organization.

Media that have been granted ENR accreditation will be contacted by February 2025.

*Non-rights holding media: Member of a non-rights holding organization. (radio or television organization). ENR accreditations are allocated by the IOC in consultation with the NOC. It is strictly prohibited for an NOC to grant a member of a non-MRH organization any type of E accreditation.
