kranj foto fest open call for exhibitions 2026

Kranj Foto Fest, one of Europe's leading photography festivals, will celebrate its 6th edition in 2026. It provides a key platform to showcase your work and connect with curators and editors. The Exhibition Program for 2026 is now open, and we invite you to apply for a chance to have your work featured in the official program.

The Open Call is open to all, with no thematic, age, or regional restrictions. Photographers from all backgrounds are invited to apply. This call for entries embraces an open theme, encouraging submissions without thematic constraints. Feel free to submit your project or series exploring any theme of your choice.

For one month, at the height of the European summer, the old town of Kranj will once again transform into an exciting hub of contemporary photography, bringing together emerging and established photographers from all over the world. Submit your work for the chance to exhibit at Kranj Foto Fest 2026, when the city becomes an open-air photo gallery. By applying to this Open Call, you'll have your work reviewed by a qualified jury. If selected, you'll work closely with the curatorial team to plan your exhibition and showcase your work to a qualified audience, including curators, photo editors, gallery owners, and publishers from Slovenia and abroad.
