Europe, a continent of ancient history and modern dynamism, offers a boundless canvas for photographers. This is Deartline’s curated hub for photography contests based in or focused on Europe, celebrating the continent’s rich tapestry of cultures, landscapes, and urban life.
We highlight competitions seeking everything from compelling street photography in its historic capitals to breathtaking images of its diverse natural landscapes, from the Nordic fjords to the Mediterranean coast. These opportunities are often open to European residents or photographers of any nationality whose work explores European themes.
You’ll find the current list of Europe-specific contests below. As we continually update our database, we encourage you to also explore our main International Photography Contests section, where European photographers are eligible to compete for global recognition.
