The World Press Photo Exhibition 2021 returns to Brisbane Powerhouse to showcase some of the most spectacular images of the past year.

The coveted award has brought together a community of more than 4000 photographers from across the globe, submitting more than 74,000 images for consideration.

Following an unexpected year of pandemics, tragedy and social justice movements, this highly anticipated exhibition will be more gut-wrenching and thought-provoking than ever.
