Cork Photo Festival

The festival began in 2014 as an artist led initiative, highlighting local photographers in venues across Cork City. The open theme and inclusive approach adopted in the first year continues, allowing everyone to take part. We embrace experimentation and encourage viewers to seek out and explore.

The Cork Photo team curates exhibitions by both local and international artists. We bring together independent galleries, arts organisations, individuals and collectives all wishing to exhibit and celebrate photography.

From 2018 the festival is biennial, taking place during April. We have a number of festival hubs secured throughout the city and look forward to delivering another exciting program.

Listings and submissions for the next festival will open in October 2017
