Some of the most electrifying and thought-provoking photos from across the news world will be on display in Old Montreal for over two months.
The 15th edition of the flagship of Montreal’s fall cultural calendar, the World Press Photo Montreal Exhibition, is returning to the Bonsecours Market after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic.
Over 55,000 people are expected to attend the large-scale international exhibition over the next 60-plus days. The exhibit has been organized since 1955 by the World Press Photo Foundation, based in the Netherlands.
