London Image Festival 2026 - Free International Photography Contest

Photographers from Latvia have the opportunity to participate in the 10th Annual London Image Festival 2026—an international photography competition where they can submit up to six works free of charge.

🇱🇻 Photographers from Latvia are also welcome to participate.
✅ Participation is free.
📸 You can submit up to 6 photographs.

The London Image Festival positions itself as an international photography and film festival, and the photography competition is open to all photographers.

🏆 Prize
The overall winner of the competition will receive:

🏆 LIF Glass Award
In addition, works selected for the competition will receive publicity on the London Image Festival’s platforms and through festival-related media channels.

🖼 Will there be an exhibition?
Yes—the competition is part of the London Image Festival, and the benefit of being selected is described as an opportunity to exhibit and receive festival publicity. However, on the official application page, the main prize specifically named is the LIF Glass Award. Therefore, in the ProPortfolio.lv text, I would not list “exhibition” as a guaranteed prize for every selected artist without further clarification.

📸 What can be submitted?
The competition features a wide range of categories, including:

* portrait;
* documentary photography;
* street photography;
* landscape;
* architecture;
* nature and wildlife;
* sports;
* travel;
* drone photography;
* black-and-white photography;
* advertising photography;
* still life;
* abstract photography;
* fine art;
* digital art;
* photo manipulation;
* underwater photography;
* open theme.

In total, the contest catalog lists 24 categories.

📤 How to enter?
Each photographer may submit up to 6 photos free of charge.

Image requirements:
* JPEG format;

* the file name must include the author’s first and last name, the title of the work, and the category.

After registration, participants will receive an application reference number, which must be used when submitting photos.

⏳ Entries may be submitted until November 1, 2026
Submission deadline: November 1, 2026.

So the contest is currently open, and entries can be submitted right now.
