Eurostars HotelsThe Hotusa Group invites amateurs and professionals to participate in the 23rd Eurostars Grand Marina Photography Award 2025. Participants must compose photographic triptychs inspired by the theme "Barcelona in nature". The jury will recognise the series that, in their opinion, capture the theme with an innovative approach and technical and aesthetic quality.
Surrounded by the Mediterranean, the Collserola mountain and the Besòs and Llobregat rivers, Barcelona integrates the natural environment into its geographical identity. Green and pedestrian areas have gained ground over the years, shaping an increasingly sustainable city.
The parks give the capital a respite, combining its botanical richness with its historical and cultural wealth. This is the case of Montjuïc and Parc de la Ciutadella, a testimony to the city's history. But there are many more and diverse: wooded, landscaped, forest, mountainous, etc.
In this edition we invite photographers to capture with their cameras the mountains that frame Barcelona's skyline, the green areas and the sea that oxygenate its urban life... In short, we want to see the most natural side of the city.
Eurostars Grand Marina Award Trophy + €2,500
Special Grupo Hotusa Award Trophy + €1,000
8 runners-up Trophy + 1 night in a Eurostars hotel of your choice
