A special purpose build theatre on the exhibition floor will host the annual quest to find the Professional Photographer of the Year and the selection of the Australian Professional Photography Awards. The judging process will be done in open forum, so that anyone may come along and watch the process.

In addition to the equipment exhibition, for the duration of Photo Imaging, the Melbourne Exhibition Centre will be hosting the largest current exhibition of photography in the world. It will also be the largest display of photo images ever held in Australia.

Attendance at the Photo Imaging Show, the judging of the awards and the Walk of Art is free. Pre- registration can also be done on line at PICA’s website: www.photoimaging.com.au.
