For over twenty years, the Peli Photo Contest has been a meeting point for photographers across the European Union who share a love for the craft and a willingness to go further to get the shot. Now in its 21st edition, we once again invite our community to do what it does best: capture what matters and let the image speak for itself.

Categories & Prizes:

• Professional Category: Bring out your most captivating work to have a chance to win up to €1,500 in Peli products.
• Amateur Category: Share your favourite shot and you could win up to €750 in Peli products.

Entry Period: 15 June – 30 August 2026

Peli Special Prize

Feature a Peli case or light in your photo for a chance to win our Special Prize. No separate registration required — any entry that visibly includes a Peli product, whether in the Amateur or Professional category, is automatically considered.

The winner will receive the brand new Peli Aegis Creator Backpack, launching in September 2026 and specifically designed for photographers. A piece of gear built around how creators actually work: protection, capacity and access where you need them — a fitting reward for the photo that best showcases what Peli is built for.

Why participate?

• Reach beyond your feed: Get your work seen by thousands across Peli’s official channels and the broader photography community.
• Premium gear: Win a Peli kit designed to protect what matters most — your equipment, your craft, your next shot.
• A real community: Join a network of photographers, creators and adventurers who share your standards and your appetite for the next frame.

How it works

From 15 June to 30 August (both dates included), submit your photos and compete across our two main categories and the Peli Special Prize.

• On 7 September, the 5 finalist photos in each category will be posted on Peli’s official Instagram account.
• From there, the public will vote for the top 3 winners per category by liking the images based on originality, composition and impact.
• Voting will close on 13 September at 11:59 p.m. CET.
• Winners will be announced on 14 September via Peli’s social media channels and notified by email.
