The 2026 competition will not be hosted by MyPhotoClub – information on the 162nd Edinburgh International Photography Exhibition 2026 can be found here
This is a print only Exhibition which was hosted on MyPhotoClub for several years.
Conducted under the approved rules and patronage of FIAP (2025/197), and GPU (L.250054).
The Edinburgh International Photography Exhibition has a sister salon which is open for entries. The 4th EPS International Digital Salon 2025 is a digital only competition with four categories, Open Colour, Open Monochrome, Nature General and People. Up to four images can be entered into each category.
There are a total of 76 Awards plus the FIAP Blue Pin for the best author to be won. A PDF of the Catalogue will be available to download.
All accepted works will be displayed in Edinburgh between 27th December 2025 and 25th January 2026. The exhibition is open to all and we invite you to come and admire the best our global photographers have to offer, and we hope they will inspire and captivate you.
We look forward to receiving your entries. Our thanks to you if you have already entered.
The 161st Edinburgh International Exhibition has now come to an end as all prints due to be returned have been posted and prints which are due for collection are ready to be collected. We had over 2000 visitors from around the world to our premises in Edinburgh, Scotland, UK, over the month of August and it was wonderful to see and hear how much they admired your artistry and skill. So thank you all for entering and for producing such beautiful prints.
The 162nd Exhibition will open for entry in March 2026. However, that seems like a long time in the future. So let me invite you to enter our digital only Salon which is open for entries now and has 76 awards to be won! Enter the 4th EPS International Digital Salon 2025 here: https://eps.myphotoclub.com.au/
We wish you the best in your photographic endeavours and look forward to you entering our Salons in the future.
Regards,
Isobel Lindsay, 161st Edinburgh International Chairman & Secretary
