We are looking for 20 great Blurb contemporary photography books to highlight at the festival.
This is a great opportunity to showcase your outstanding Blurb photography book at PhotoIreland. This year the festival kicks off July 1st and celebrates its first Book & Magazine Fair, with a special focus on photo books. You’ll enjoy events at dozens of venues around the city, including Blurb bookmaking seminars.

If your book is selected, it will be on display at the Book & Magazine Fair, and we’ll also bring all 20 along with us to the Belfast Photo Festival in August.
