Panathlon International is pleased to announce the conclusion of the Photo Contest 2025, photographic competition dedicated to the theme "Being twenty: the sport I live". The initiative, addressed to young photographers between 18 and 35 years old, has successfully collected many adhesions, offering an authentic and passionate look on the sport lived by Generation Z.

The competition is an integral part of the OFF Circuit of European Photography XX, a prestigious international festival taking place in Reggio Emilia from 24 April to 8 June 2025. This year's theme, “Being twenty: the sport I live”, explores the hopes, challenges and contradictions of youth through the lens of emerging and established photographers.
