Visa pour l'Image

When Perpignan transforms into the photojournalism Hub!

The must-attend event of the season

If you happen to be passing through between late August and mid-September, you absolutely must check out Visa pour l'Image, the world's most prestigious international photojournalism festival, held right here in Perpignan.

This festival is a unique chance to witness the striking realities of our planet, often captured at great personal risk by the year's top photojournalists.

Imagine strolling through the city's historic venues—like the impressive Couvent des Minimes or the Old University—all transformed into massive art galleries displaying the work of the world's greatest reporters. You'll discover poignant stories, forgotten conflicts, social struggles, and environmental challenges, all captured through lenses that never flinch.

But the real highlight? Don't miss the open-air projection evenings in the magical setting of the Campo Santo. Every night, beneath the starry sky, the year's news flashes by—powerful, moving, and in spectacular large format.
