An eight-hour, five-checkpoint race through Nijmegen, organised by popular demand as a second 2022 edition. Judged by an all-female jury, with more than €700 in prize money.
By popular demand, UPR organised a second race in 2022, this time in Nijmegen, a historic city on the Waal with narrow streets, squares and corners well suited to an Urban Photo Race.
The eight-hour race started at 11:00. Along the way, participants visited checkpoints and received four themes, with 12 photos due the next day at 13:00. An all-female jury judged the submissions, with more than €700 in prize money on offer.
Every photographer who lined up at the start also finished the race.
