Photo Hanoi’25

Photo Hanoi ’25 – a professional meeting place for photographers, will take place for 30 days from November 1, 2025 to November 30, 2025. 22 solo and group exhibitions, along with 29 side events of the “wordless art” genre will be opened at many locations in Hanoi, becoming a visual feast to welcome the public and visitors.

With its expanded scale and gradually improved organizational standards, Photo Hanoi ’25 brings together more than 160 visual artists, photographers, curators and experts from Vietnam and countries such as France, Germany, England, Belgium, Switzerland, Spain, the Netherlands, Italy, Czech Republic, Ireland, the United States, Japan, China, Cambodia… Among them are prestigious names in the field of international contemporary photography, artists of Vietnamese origin, artists representing the younger generation… This diversity creates a strong cultural exchange environment, opening up dialogue between Vietnamese and international photography.

The combination of international artistic quality and local urban identity has created a special attraction for the biennale. The image of a modern, open, creative and culturally rich Hanoi is strongly spread, gradually enhancing the international position of the Capital on the regional and world art map, while affirming Hanoi’s role as a destination for creative people and photography lovers.
