What if you rediscovered Marseille through your lens? The Euroméditerranée Photo Marathon returns this Saturday, April 11, 2026, with a brand-new route that promises to change your perspective on the city. This year, the focus is on Euroméditerranée 2, an area undergoing significant transformation, now connected to the city center by tram.
The principle remains simple, and just as effective: for a few hours, participants explore the city in teams, smartphone or camera in hand, with one mission: to capture the moment . Four themes, revealed along the way, give rhythm to this unique urban stroll. Here, you don't need to be an experienced photographer: all you need is a curious eye and a little imagination.
The route itself holds some delightful surprises. Between iconic landmarks and more secluded spaces, it invites you to explore both Euroméditerranée 1 and its new extension. Revitalized brownfield sites, contemporary architecture, vibrant living spaces… all these settings reveal another facet of Marseille, a city in constant motion.
Everything happens live: photos are shared on Instagram as they are taken, and a jury selects its favorites throughout the day. The prizes include a few well-chosen awards, and above all, the satisfaction of having captured the city in a unique way. A fifth category will extend the online competition, with a People's Choice Award.
More than just a competition, the Photo Marathon fosters a friendly atmosphere. Participants can join with family, friends, or even solo (teams are formed on-site), before gathering in the late afternoon for a shared experience. It's a fun way to explore Marseille in a new light, combining a treasure hunt with a creative perspective.
