Photo 24 save the date: June 25 & 26 Photo 24 comes to London – and every PN reader is invited
WITH PHOTO WALKS, workshops and experiences, Photo 24 is our very special, day-long festival of photography. It’ll be an immersive, action-packed experience with a
range of activities. And Photo 24 is free, although we will be offering optional paid-for events. This year’s extravaganza, sponsored by used gear experts MPB, is in London. It starts at 12 noon on 25 June and ends 24 hours later. While spaces for the actual event are limited, there is the opportunity for every PN reader to get involved in Photo 24 through social media, so there is no limit on numbers. We’ll have challenges and contests for Photo 24 – both in- person, as well as online – with prizes to be won.
That’s it for now, and you don’t have to do anything yet – apart from block out 25 and 26 June in your diary. Over the coming months, we’ll be announcing full details of what we have planned for our 24-hour event – in the magazine, on our website and on social media. The team will also be chatting about Photo 24 in The Photography News Podcast, with advice on how to enjoy (and survive) our photographic marathon. All episodes are available
on our website, as well as on YouTube and Apple Podcasts. photographynews.co.uk
