The World Press Photo Exhibition 2024 invites viewers to step outside the news cycle and think critically about important topics in our world.

Held at the Brisbane Powerhouse, this popular internationally touring exhibition showcases the best and most important photojournalism and documentary photography of the last year.

Explore the photographs that won the 67th annual World Press Photo Contest, chosen from 61,062 entries by 3851 photographers from 130 countries. From the 24 regional winners, the 2024 Contest jury selected the four global winners: the World Press Photo of the Year, World Press Photo Story of the Year, World Press Photo Long-Term Project Award, and World Press Photo Open Format Award.

 World Press Photo was founded in 1955 when a group of Dutch photographers organized a contest (“World Press Photo”) to expose their work to an international audience. Since then, the World Press Photo Contest has grown into one of the world’s most prestigious competitions, rewarding the best in photojournalism and documentary photography from around the world. Through a successful worldwide exhibition program, the World Press Photo Foundation presents to millions of people the stories that matter.
