Photo Forum Fest 2026

The Palacio de Congresos de Fira de Barcelona will once again bring together thousands of professionals and enthusiasts from almost fifty countries, drawn by a programme that combines training, inspiration and direct contact with the latest trends in the sector.

The event retains its hybrid format, halfway between a festival, conference and professional fair, connecting creators, brands and the public in one space. The programme is structured around three major conferences: Bodaf Europe, focused on wedding photography and video; Family Time, dedicated to the family and children’s world; and Life, aimed at photojournalism, nature, and travel and adventure photography.

One of the most anticipated moments will be the presence of Italian photographer Paolo Roversi, an international reference for his poetic and timeless style, who will give a masterclass before the festival begins. He will be joined by leading figures such as Walter Astrada, Pau Buscató and Jaime Rojo, among other prominent names on the current scene.

The 2026 edition also stands out for the growing prominence of women, especially visible in the conferences dedicated to social and family photography, reflecting a real change within the sector. It also includes a large exhibition area with the leading brands, open workshops, live sessions and networking spaces.
