Extra time at the exhibition!

On 4 August National Museum Cardiff will be open until 9pm as part of our Extra Time openings. Come and enjoy the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition until 8pm!

From shrimp to squid, and polar bears to insects – the Natural History Museum’s acclaimed Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition returns to National Museum Cardiff!

The exhibition will feature 100 stunning backlit images that ignite curiosity by showcasing Earth's extraordinary diversity and the fragility of the natural world.

Wildlife Photographer of the Year is a global platform showcasing the natural world’s most astonishing and challenging sights. This year's competition received over 49,000 entries from all over the world.

Using the unique emotive power of photography, the competition inspires people to think differently about their relationship with nature and become advocates for the planet.

Judged by a panel of industry-recognised professionals, the images are selected for their creativity, artistry and technical complexity. Wildlife Photographer of the Year is developed and produced by the Natural History Museum, London.
