Photowalk at Fermilab: Summer 2025

Calling all photographers. How would you like the chance to take pictures in some of the most interesting places on the Fermilab campus, and then have your shots entered in an international contest?

Fermilab invites photographers - both amateurs and professionals - to apply to attend a four-hour behind-the-scenes tour of the laboratory on a weekend in July or August 2025. The date will be announced and applications will open later this spring. The Fermilab Photowalk is part of the Interactions Global Physics Photowalk, hosted this spring and summer at science labs around the world.

Photographers will be able to explore and take pictures of scientific experiments, equipment and locations in five research areas that are not usually accessible to the public. They will then have the chance to submit their top photos from the event to a Fermilab panel of judges. The local panel will recommend their favorite photos to the worldwide Global Physics Photowalk competition organized by the Interactions Collaboration. A public vote and an international panel will select the global winners, who will have the opportunity to be featured in Symmetry magazine and the CERN Courier.
