Photography Exhibition The 16th Edition of Festival Images & Neige

The town of Cluses, in Haute-Savoie, is organising the 16th edition of the Images & Neige photography festival on 30th, 31st January and 1st February 2026 at the Parvis des Esserts.

Every year, 3,000 to 4,000 visitors (over 3 days, including 700 to 900 schoolchildren) in Cluses (France) attend this event dedicated to cold weather and snow, which addresses ecological transition, sport, nature and adventure through the lens of photography. For this 16th edition, you will find around twenty photographers exhibiting their work, with renowned guests of honour: Bruno & Dorota Sennechal and photos of their magnificent Canadian wolf. At the same time, exhibitions are planned at the
Cluses Media Library, in the new gourmet halls, and in partnership with Regard du Vivant, the exhibition entitled ‘Mémoires des glaces’ (Memories of Ice) will be on display on Place Charles de Gaulle and in front of the Cluses cinema.

An entertainment village for the general public will be set up with: NST-sport presenting its eco-responsible approach, the mountain nature centre offering workshops on fauna and flora, photography experts such as Giandra de Castro, Johanna Perret and the Numericus Focus photography club, and many more! The weekend will be punctuated by numerous conferences: by the exhibiting photographers or by glaciologist Dr Maurine Montagnat Rentier.

A children’s show about glaciers on Saturday morning.
