Press Photo Night

Award-winning photojournalism

| accessibility.time_to

Every year, “Swiss Press Photo” and “World Press Photo” honour the best photojournalists both from Switzerland and the rest of the world. Unfortunately, this year's exhibition couldn’t make it to the Swiss National Museum in Zurich in light of the pandemic. So we're really looking forward to showing you 2021’s winning pictures from both competitions at the “Press Photo Night”. Get inspired by the handiwork of the best photographers and immerse yourself in the stories behind the pictures, which are as touching as they are informative!

The presentations will be conducted by Albertine Bourget, jury member of "Swiss Press Photo" (in German), and Raphael Dias e Silva, exhibition manager and curator of "World Press Photo" (in English).

The event is free and a reservation is mandatory.
