La Kabine
The 2026 edition of Prix Révélation SAIF x La Kabine is ready to launch!
An Arles-based photography prize for emerging talents, Prix Révélation SAIF x La Kabine was awarded by Voies Off and SAIF from 2013 to 2019.
Relaunched in 2024 to mark the return of Festival OFF Arles Photo, Prix Révélation SAIF x La Kabine aims to promote an inclusive, respectful and ethical photography prize for everyone. It supports the new generation of photographers by promoting original or less exposed projects.

We are delighted to announce that applications are open from 9 March to 29 March 2026.

With a total value of €5,000, this prize will award the winner with €2,000 and the chance to be exhibited during the next edition of the OFF Festival.
Furthermore, 30 finalists will be selected to present their work through a projection during La Nuit de l'Émergence, held during the opening week of Festival OFF Arles Photo in early July 2026.
Each finalist will also receive €100 in copyright royalties for the presentation of their project.

Prix Révélation supports emerging creators with a clear and embodied vision, promoting fresh topics and original approaches that spark imagination and reflection around contemporary photography.

Arles stands out as a vital platform for showcasing, promoting, and developing the work of artist-photographers.
Alongside Rencontres de la Photographie, Festival OFF Arles Photo has become a major cultural event in Arles. It energizes the city with a rich, accessible programme that brings together a wide audience through exhibitions, screenings, and singular events.
Free and open to all, it encourages discovery, exchanges and dialogue, transforming the city into a vibrant territory of visual and creative expression.

The first two editions of the Festival welcomed around 50,000 visitors each year.
In 2025, more than 500 artists and 200 exhibitions took over more than 120 venues across the city of Arles.
Young creators represented 60% of the artists featured in the programme.

At the core of the Festival are the key values driving its vision, approach, and all its actions: respect for cultural diversity, inclusion, integrity and environmental responsibility.

Prix Révélation is organised by La Kabine, an Arles-based association dedicated to the creation and promotion of images, and Saif, a collective copyright management organisation for the visual arts, as part of OFF Arles Photo, a free, inclusive and audacious festival driven by collective creativity.
