World Press Photo
Best press photos in the world in Amsterdam
The World Press Photo exhibition is one of the world's leading platforms for photojournalism and visual storytelling . The exhibition was founded in 1955 as a platform for photojournalists to share their work.
Every year, the World Press Photo Foundation organizes a competition in which photojournalists from all over the world submit their work. The entries are judged by an independent jury. The winning photos are then bundled into a traveling exhibition, which is shown worldwide.
Please note: On Saturday 26 April (celebrating King's Day), 3 May, 4 May (National Remembrance Day) and May 16th, the exhibition is closed.
