The sixth edition of Wiki Loves Monuments, the Guinness World Record holder for the largest photography competition, is taking place again in Malta this year. The competition brings together photographers from around the world to take stunning pictures of our cultural heritage to be shared on Wikipedia.

This competition opens on the 1st of September. Participation is free and open to all. The deadline for all submissions is on the 30th of September but submissions can be made throughout the month of September. Participants need to own the photos they submit and release them under a Creative Commons open licence.

Photo uploading workshops will be held in mid-September 2021, in accordance with health authority guidelines, in collaboration with the Valletta Design Cluster within the Valletta Cultural Agency. Details will follow at www.wikimalta.org and via Facebook & Instagram closer to the date.

A jury composed of experts within the fields of cultural heritage, photography and Wikipedia will be selecting the winning entries. Ten winning submissions will be nominated for the international Wiki Loves Monuments contest, with the opportunity to win further prizes.
