Considerations to take into account
The photographs must be taken at any event of the Old Town Festival of 2026. Any photographs received that are of other festivals or neighborhoods will be excluded from the competition.
The participants will be responsible for being the sole authors of the material submitted, of the rights to third parties, as well as of any possible claim for image rights on the works submitted to the competition.
Images must be original works, which do not infringe the rights of reproduction or any other rights of third parties and which do not contain any obscene, sexually explicit, violent, offensive, inflammatory or defamatory content. The organization may reject photographs and messages that do not comply with these characteristics or that may be offensive to people, entities or institutions, and is exonerated from any responsibility regarding possible breaches by contestants in terms of intellectual, industrial or image property rights.
The images must have the authorization of the people who may appear in them. In the case of images where minors appear, the contestant must have the consent of the legal guardians to publish them. Under no circumstances will the organization assume this responsibility, nor the consequences that may arise from it.
Each contestant can only get one prize from the 3 categories.
The prizes will be awarded on the day of the opening of the exhibition and must be collected by the winners of each category or by the person they assign. Otherwise, the prize will be awarded to the finalist photo with the highest score.
The participating people will transfer to the Center Cívic Convent de Sant Agustí, the Coordinator of the Festa Major del Casc Antic and the Barcelona City Council the rights of reproduction and public communication of their works with the purpose of spreading the Festa Major del Casc Antic, which will state the authorship of the reproduced photograph.
