Copenhagen Photo Festival

Copenhagen Photo Festival Every year Copenhagen Photo Festival presents a varied program of curated exhibitions and activities in untraditional settings in the festival center.  In 2025 guests can experience an invited and world renowned highlight within photography for the first time at the festival center as well as a series of solo exhibitions that are focused on presenting international photography within both art and documentary. The solo artists are found through an international open call and selected from nearly a thousand applicants from all over the world.  CPF strives to break the established frames of photography and present the audience with both indoor and outdoor exhibitions and in a sustainable way engage with its surroundings as well as society, identity and visual culture. We aim at expanding the usual understanding of how we engage with photography – as art and documentary – in untraditional surroundings. About Copenhagen Photo Festival is a non-profit organisation passionately supporting and lifting the knowledge around photography through exhibition and activities that highlight art and documentary photography. The festival began in 2010 and is held every year in june in Copenhagen. Museums, galleries and pop-up exhibitions with focus on photography and camera based art are also taking part in the festival in a separat festival partner program called CPF X
