DEADLINE: World Press Photo Contest

The annual World Press Photo Contest recognizes and celebrates the best photojournalism and documentary photography produced over the last year. Entering is free and prizes include up to €10,000, inclusion in our annual traveling exhibition, and more.

Entries to the 2025 World Press Photo Contest are open until January 10, 2025, 13:00 CET. We want the annual contest to be a platform where a multiplicity of voices can be heard — and stories can be seen — so that the results truly are reflective of our world.
