In the case of works with several nominations, the festival will study the possibility of granting more accreditations depending on availability, with a limit of 4 accreditations per selected work, starting from 2 and independently of the total number of nominations received.

Travel will not be covered by the festival, however, a pick-up and drop-off service will be provided to the hotel on the day of arrival, as well as on the day of the march. All other travel will be at the guests' own expense, unless otherwise indicated by the festival organizers.
