World Press Photo 2020 special schedule
From October 9 to November 1, 2020
Every day from 10 AM to 4 PM

The World Press Photo has been recognized since 1955 as the largest and most prestigious annual press photography competition in the world. The award-winning photographs are assembled in a traveling exhibition visiting more than 100 cities in 45 countries including Saguenay. The international exhibition “World Press Photo 2020” covers the major events of 2019, divided into eight categories (News, General information, Contemporary subject, Portrait, Environment, Nature, Sport and Long-term project).

The winners were chosen by an independent jury which examined more than 73,996 photographs submitted by 4,282 photographers from 125 countries.

The exhibition is presented exclusively at La Pulperie. No other Canadian city will host the exhibit this year. It is therefore a unique opportunity to come and discover this magnificent exhibition.

Exhibition presented as part of the Zoom Photo Festival Saguenay.

Produced by the World Press Photo Foundation.
World Press Photo receives support from the Dutch Postcode Lottery.
