The 2026 Nikon Comedy Wildlife Awards competition is now OPEN and accepting entries for the 2026 Awards. Entry is via the website and the closing date is 30 June 2026
ELIGIBILITY:
It’s free to enter and open to everyone using any camera brand, and you don’t even have to be a professional photographer. You just need to have a funny photo or video of some wonderful wildlife and register on here to upload. It’s tons of fun, and we haven’t even started to mention the fabulous prizes on offer…check them out on the tab above.
Entry is via the website and the closing date is 30 June 2026
You can find out more about our competition, our mission and our conservation efforts on our website.
First things first, the competition is open to all camera brand users. Yup, that’s right, we don’t mind what equipment you use, as long as it features wildlife and it’s funny… (harder than it sounds!)
You can enter a total of up to 10 images and 2 videos—that’s it, no more.
You can enter up to 3 images into each category, except the Amazing Internet (and they are…). Portfolio category where you have to enter 4 pictures. (More info on the categories below.)
Another thing, remember if your pic is hilarious but in the wrong category, fret not. We will put it into the right category, simple as that. Aren’t we nice?
