Eurostars Hotel Company invites residents and visitors to participate in the 2026 Eurostars Hotel Company Valladolid Photography Award.
The winners of the contest will be the photographers whose images, in the opinion of the jury, best capture the theme "Valladolid Unveiled."
Valladolid is a city with a rich, diverse, and constantly evolving identity. This photography competition seeks to answer a simple question: Which images best represent Valladolid, both for its residents and for those discovering it for the first time?
Created to help build a visual narrative of the city, the competition invites amateur and professional photographers to capture images that reveal the essence of the capital of Castile and León.
Rather than simply portraying its iconic landmarks, participants are encouraged to discover original perspectives that express what makes Valladolid unique. The organizers are looking for photographs that highlight its urban spaces, architectural heritage, landscapes, cultural life, and traditions, creating a collective visual chronicle that presents a contemporary, authentic, and representative image of the city.
The Eurostars Hotel Company Valladolid Photography Award is open to both amateur and professional photographers wishing to share their personal vision of this inspiring destination.
Prizes:
First Prize: €1,500 and a trophy.
Runners-up: A trophy and 9 complimentary stays at the Eurostars Hotel Company hotel of their choice.

All About Photo
The street never stops telling stories. A stranger's glance, a shadow cutting across pavement, the chaos of rush hour or the hush of an empty corner at 3am — street photography catches the world when it isn't posing. This is your invitation to show us how you see it. Street photography, as Encyclopedia Britannica defines it, is "a genre that records everyday life in a public place." Photographers have been chasing this exact moment since the birth of the medium itself — Louis-Jacques-Mandé Da

Carlotta Gallery: People
Deadline: September 10, 2026
Carlotta Gallery
This is a focus on people as they appear in everyday life, and on the single person within them, without staging or certainty. People are alone or together, close or distant, each one a small world within a larger unfolding of moments that continue beyond the frame. The human presence becomes both individual and collective, central and passing. Photography gathers these moments as traces rather than conclusions. What remains is not explanation but recognition, the sense of having seen a perso
