We're Here For You

Thank you for your interest in the Richmond Region. RMCVB's goal is to assist journalists with requests for accommodations, access to attractions and museums, meals and transportation as it relates to articles, books and broadcasts.

Let us know how we can help. Please submit your requests for assistance via our media inquiry form. If you're working on deadline and need immediate assistance, contact Janene Charbeneau, Director of Communications, at 804-783-7411 or jcharb@richmondva.org. Please note that we may not be able to accommodate all requests.

Media Requirements

RMCVB encourages members of the media to visit the Richmond Region and see why we're easy to love. To make your visit as easy as possible, we request that you follow the guidelines listed below. Please allow a minimum of two business weeks notice for a press visit once we have received all of your credentials. This allows us time to pursue suitable, available lodging and make other arrangements to enhance your visit.

  • Complete the request for information form.
  • Forward a letter of assignment on letterhead from the media outlet you are representing. Freelance writers, please forward documentation of recent examples of travel or travel-related feature coverage. Fax items to Janene Charbeneau, Director of Communications at 804-780-2577 or email jcharb@richmondva.org.
  • Notify the RMCVB of any change in plans immediately.
  • Forward an original copy of your published feature, cassette tape or VHS tape as well as air dates upon completion.
  • Please note that complimentary arrangements are provided at the discretion of the host businesses and are subject to availability. Unfortunately, we cannot provide transportation costs.

Our primary concern is assisting working press. Therefore, host locations are usually unable to accommodate spouses, children and visitors accompanying working press. Thank you for your understanding and your interest in discovering why the Richmond Region is easy to love.
