Photo Festival at Kamera Express in Frankfurt with workshops, photo walks & trade fair promotions
Venue: Kamera Express, Frankfurt
Experience photography firsthand, discover new techniques, and bring fresh ideas to your images!
The Location
On October 23 and 24, 2026, Kamera Express in Frankfurt will become the meeting point for everyone who wants to experience photography actively. A versatile event awaits you with technology, practice, and direct exchange.
The photo walks are the heart of the festival: you will go on a search for motifs together with other participants and try out different photographic genres directly on-site. Instead of a fixed central theme, the event deliberately focuses on diversity – allowing you to further develop both your creative eye and your technical understanding.
On-site, you can test current cameras, lenses, and accessories directly in use. Experts will support you, explain functions, and give you practical tips for better images.
Experience photography in motion – try new things, further develop your style, and gather inspiration for your next projects.
Safety first: Please act respectfully and follow the instructions of the local staff at all times.
