World Press Photo Exibition 2026

Among the most important international events dedicated to photojournalism and documentary photography, the World Press Photo Exhibition returns to narrate our times through the award-winning images of the World Press Photo Contest. The 69th edition of the contest selected the winning works from 57,376 photographs submitted by 3,747 photographers from 141 countries. Displayed annually in numerous locations around the world, the traveling exhibition brings together images capable of conveying the complexity of contemporary reality: crises, conflicts, climate change, political and social tensions, but also stories of resistance, dignity, and reconstruction. It is an invitation to carefully observe what is happening in the world and to recognize photography as an essential form of testimony.
