The Northern Metropolis Photo and Short Video Competition, organised by the Northern Metropolis Co-ordination Office (NMCO) of the Development Bureau, was launched today (December 18). Members of the public are invited to capture, through their lenses, the unique beauty of the Northern Metropolis (NM) from different angles and dimensions of time, showcasing the NM in the past, present and future.
The Acting Director of the NMCO, Ms Pecvin Yong, said, "The NM is the strategic focus of the future development of Hong Kong. At the same time, the NM is rich in natural landscapes and cultural heritage worthy of further discovery and understanding. We hope that through this competition, we can encourage members of the public to explore and appreciate the diverse facets of the NM more deeply."
The competition will be run in two categories, namely "Photo" and "Short Video". Each category features three themes: "History and Culture", "Environment and Conservation", and "Development and Construction".
For each theme, there will be a Champion, 1st Runner-up, 2nd Runner-up, and five Merit Prizes, with the top prize being $3,000 along with a trophy. The awarded entries will be exhibited at the Exhibition and Award Ceremony and will be used for educational and promotional purposes.
Submission of entries will close on January 18, 2026. Details are available on the competition website: www.nm.gov.hk/en/nm-photo-and-short-video-competition.
