Exhibitions

Tbilisi Photo Festival (TPF) - the first International photo festival in Georgia is 15 years old. Tbilisi Photography & Multimedia Museum (TPMM) - the first and only institution in the South Caucasus entirely dedicated to the contemporary image in its different forms - enters its 5th anniversary. 

To mark these milestones, the festival and the museum have partnered with Magnum Photos - the world’s oldest and most prestigious photo agency - for a special program celebrating photography as a way of seeing and being in the world - defined by many global challenges. 

The special program combining an exhibition, screening and live music event, public talk and photo book exhibition is a result of collaboration between Magnum Photos, TPF and TPMM and will take place during the opening week of 2025 Tbilisi Photo Festival, from June 18 to 25. 

The main partner of the Tbilisi Photo Festival 2025 is Adjara Group. The event is supported by Visa and TBC.
