World Press Photo returns to the CCCB with a selection of images that invite visitors to pause and reflect on stories that often pass too quickly through the news cycle. The exhibition features award-winning work by 42 photographers from around the world, covering conflicts, migration, the climate crisis, protests, social rights and other stories that shaped 2025. Some images capture events on the front line, while others received little attention in the headlines. All encourage us to slow down and look more closely at what is happening around the world.
This is... good to know
The Photo of the Year is “Separated by ICE”, by Carol Guzy. Taken in a New York courtroom, the photograph documents the separation of a family after the father was detained by immigration agents.
On Sunday afternoons, admission to World Press Photo is free with advance booking. It’s an opportunity to take your time exploring the stories behind the images, free of charge.
The exhibition groups the works by six major world regions and into three categories: individual photographs, photo stories and long-term projects. This offers a way of seeing current events from different perspectives.
