Established in 2023, the Astrophotography Prize is an international photography competition celebrating Astrophotographers worldwide. A committed core group of astrophotographers organizes the Astrophotography Prize. Their mission is to support astrophotographers worldwide in refining their skills and deriving maximum enjoyment from this hobby.
The Astrophotography Prize (AstroPrize) is unique among astrophotography competitions worldwide. It is the only competition that offers the opportunity for both verbal and written feedback to entrants from judges who are Internationally recognised leaders in their respective fields.
The AstroPrize is much more than an annual competition. In partnership with our sponsors, this event aims to increase education, enthusiasm, and craftsmanship in astrophotography. It brings together photographers from all over the world and engenders the spirit of competition. Last year’s competition attracted entries from 14 countries across five continents.
Following the immense success of the 2023 Astrophotography Prize categories, the event was elevated to new heights! The 2024 Astrophotography Prize was a dedicated event over two days in September, and is on again this year on September 13th & 14th, 2025.
This exciting event features live judging centred around four main categories: Deep Space, Solar System, Astro Landscape and Remote Imaging.
To ensure maximum accessibility for enthusiasts worldwide, the event will be both live-streamed and recorded. The replays will again be available to view on the Home page.
We're assembling another incredible team of international judges, and there will be many amazing prizes up for grabs
