The Singapore International Photography Festival returns in 2026 for its landmark 10th edition.  From 16 October 2026 to 31 January 2027, SIPF 2026 presents In My End Is My Beginning, a major celebration of photography, memory, transformation, and new beginnings. This milestone edition commemorates 25 years of Singapore’s photographic history, while bringing together powerful visual narratives from Singapore, Southeast Asia, and around the world.

Marking a decade of presenting ambitious photographic practices and meaningful cultural encounters, SIPF 2026 celebrates the rich histories that shape us while looking boldly towards the future of the medium hosting 64 artists over 10 venues.

One of the highlights at this years festival is FEM: Women, Lives, and Korean Photobooks at Shop—House by DECK from 16 Oct 2026 — 29 Nov 2026. Rather than presenting a single narrative of womanhood, Fem brings together Korean photobooks that explore women’s lives through diverse experiences, relationships, memories, labour, care, migration, the body, and identity. Featuring photographers from their twenties to their eighties, the selection spans multiple generations and perspectives, offering an intergenerational view of Korean photobook culture.
