I don't want to be a promoter but would be interested in obtaining a blue vest (photographer access).

Go Conrad!

 

If you interested in getting a blue vest you're going to have to contact our PR Agency or visit our website its on their. Just to let you know they're pretty strict on photo creditentials, we don't just give it people who are free lance..usually require some proof of editorial.
