The OFF Arles Festival is THE go-to spot for photography lovers, offering a free and inclusive space for both emerging and established artists to express themselves.
Alongside the Rencontres de la Photographie, the OFF energizes Arles’ cultural scene with an eclectic program of exhibitions, screenings, workshops, and events that bring the city to life.
The 2025 edition promises to be rich and vibrant: over 120 exhibitions, 4 evenings combining DJ sets and screenings, 4 round tables on contemporary photography, and a wide range of workshops.
A true artistic laboratory, the OFF fosters experimentation and dialogue around contemporary imagery, turning Arles into a creative playground—open to all and entirely free of charge.
Beyond the frame, countless perspectives: the Arles OFF Festival dives into bold, fearless, and inventive photography, driven by artists from around the world, lighting up the liveliest corners of Arles.
Once again this year, the Arles Off Festival brings the city to life with the rhythm of independent photography.
Galleries, unexpected venues, collectives, and artists from around the world take over the streets and walls of Arles to present a bold, rich, and socially engaged panorama.
The 2025 program reflects the diversity of perspectives, places, and approaches that fuel the vibrancy of the Off.
Discover exhibitions, events, talks, and installations that celebrate a free and dynamic vision of photography.
