The press conferences at which the laureates will be announced are held at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm. They are only open to the journalists and photographers covering this year’s prizes. Please note that registration in advance and valid press credentials are obligatory.

This year we hope to welcome as many journalists/photographers as we did prior to the pandemic. This means that seats for reporters in the Session Hall will not be assigned. If you wish to secure a specific seat, we suggest that you arrive early. The Session Hall opens at 9.00 a.m CEST.

Please follow the links below in order to register for a specific press conference. Registration must be made for each press conference separately.

If you wish to interview an expert from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences after the announcements, please note this in the registration form. Please also let us know if you want to reserve a space for filming with a camera on a stand. All who are going to participate needs to fill in a registration form, it’s not possible to register more than one at the same time.

If you cannot attend in person, you can follow the live broadcast at www.kva.se or www.nobelprize.org (no registration needed).
