World Press Photo 2026 in Genoa: the exhibition at Palazzo Ducale until 31 December

For the second year running Genoa hosts the World Press Photo Exhibition, the international show of images awarded by the world's best-known photojournalism and documentary photography contest. It is open from 25 September to 31 December 2026 in the Loggia degli Abati of Palazzo Ducale, in the heart of the city. The photographs tell the story of recent months, including its less visible sides: wars, the climate crisis, political unrest. Among the pictures on show is the 2026 photo of the year by Carol Guzy, about families separated by immigration policy in the United States. The exhibition stands up for press freedom and invites visitors to look at the present with a critical eye. Opening hours and tickets on worldpressphotogenova.it and on the Palazzo Ducale website.
