Every photography competition currently open for entry — verified by hand against the organizer's site, or extracted by AI from a URL or poster you submitted. The source is on every row. Fees, categories, AI policies, eligibility: read carefully, never scraped, never resold.
Every entry is verified against the competition's own website. Each row carries its provenance, fee tier, and AI policy at a glance.
We have no commercial relationship with any competition listed. The index stays impartial — we're not an affiliate, not a broker, not paid by organizers.
Not open for entry yet — but worth planning for. 4 majors on the horizon. Open one to set a one-time reminder.
Trigger a fresh AI search for active competitions beyond what's listed above. Optionally narrow by country or region. Five phases, ~30–60 seconds. Re-submitting the form runs the search again with newer results.

Drop a competition URL — AI fetches the page, extracts every field, and auto-publishes when the data is clean. Have a poster photo instead? Upload it →
Drop a handful of photographs. We read each at the scene level — subject, style, composition, palette, cultural markers — and tell you which one wins for which competition, with reasoning you can act on. Never faces. Never identity. Never a verdict without reasoning.
Three steps. Same session. Cached re-runs.
These are illustrative examples. When you drop your own photos, every one gets read against each competition's published criteria — category fit, artistic merit, technical quality, originality. The verdict comes back as a tier you can act on, not a number you have to interpret.
Honest verdicts only. We don't pad the list with weak matches just to feel useful — if a photograph isn't a real contender, we say so.
Free bonus on signup: the 2026 Photo Contest Yearbook PDF — 22 contests classified, deadlines, fees, AI policies decoded.
