2025 London award ceremony

The 2025 Underwater Photographer of the Year awards were announced at a special awards evening in central London. Alex Mustard, chair of the UPY jury, presented the awards on stage with winners traveling to London from as far away as Mexico, Kuwait and the USA.
“Although the UPY Awards Evening was instigated to celebrate the 10 year anniversary in 2024, its popularity means that we plan for it to become a regular event. There are very few such socials that allow top photographers to come together with the only obligation of building friendships and exchanging ideas and information. And most of the well-lubricated audience headed out in London’s West End for a memorable after-party.”
The event was hosted by long-time UPY sponsors The Crown Estate at their prestigious property in St James's Market.
