The Bundespressekonferenz (BPK) (German for "Federal Press Conference") is a union of journalists that report exclusively for German media, and who primarily report from Berlin and Bonn.

It is financed solely through membership fees. Membership of the Bundespressekonferenz is limited exclusively to German journalists that report from either Bonn or Berlin. In December 2020 It has 900 parliamentary correspondents. The most important committee is the general assembly, which appoints the 8 members of the board, who take turns leading press conferences.
