Red Bull Illume, the world’s greatest action and adventure sports photography contest, is set to introduce something completely fresh for mobile phone users across the world – a series of National Mobile Photo Contests.
This new development follows on from the successful addition of a mobile category to Red Bull Illume 2016. These contests aim to give mobile snappers the opportunity to enter their best mobile phone images and a chance to see their photos join the Red Bull Illume Exhibit Tour in their respective country.
The very first incarnation of the National Mobile Contests kicks off in the U.S. today, and will close in a month’s time on August 14, 2016. After submissions close, a panel of esteemed judges will select the best photos. The image of the Overall Winner will then not only be displayed on a stunning light box and travel to cultural hubs and hotspots in the U.S. alongside the exceptional images of the global contest, but will also be invited to the Red Bull Illume Winner Award Ceremony in Chicago.
The Ceremony will take place on September 28, 2016 and the victor of the U.S. Mobile Contest will have the opportunity to rub shoulders with some of the biggest names in the action and adventure sports photography scene. For contest rules and details, visit the Red Bull Illume U.S. Mobile Contest page.
Keep an eye on redbullillume.com, as more countries are set to host their own National Mobile Contests too – details to follow very soon.
While waiting for the unveiling of the winners on September 28, 2016, visit the Red Bull Illume social channels on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for a sneak peek of this edition’s entries. These randomly selected shots showcase just-how impressive the 2016 Red Bull Illume submissions really were.
