Photo contests you can enter free for the 2027 season, from our verified records: who enters free, when each closes, the AI rule and the licence.
A complete, current list of the major photography competitions open for entry as of June 2026 — eighteen of them, from contests closing this month to the big 2027 names that just opened. For each: the deadline, whether it's free or paid, and the one rule that disqualifies more entrants than any other — what it lets you do to the file. Updated as deadlines pass.
