The 2025 Global Chinese New Year Photography Competition (GCPC) invites photographers and visual artists from all corners of the globe to celebrate the magic of Chinese New Year and Chinese Culture through the lens of their cameras. We welcome diverse and innovative submissions that capture the essence and beauty of this vibrant holiday and its cultural significance.

The Global Chinese New Year Photography Contest is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a specially designed commemorative album, which comprehensively includes outstanding works from the past ten years. All submitted works in this year’s contest will have the opportunity to be included in this album, showcasing the participants’ exceptional talent and creativity. The album not only records the glorious history of the contest but also demonstrates the global Chinese community’s love and inheritance of Chinese culture. Through this album, we hope to share these precious moments and emotions with more people, promote Chinese culture, and enhance international cultural exchange.

This album will become a valuable cultural heritage, showcasing the development and achievements of the photography contest to the world.
