The world's best, now on show
The world-renowned Wildlife Photographer of the Year comes to Palmerston North from the Natural History Museum in London. It is the most prestigious photography event of its kind, providing a global platform that showcases the natural world’s most astonishing and challenging sights for more than 50 years.
Using photography’s unique emotive power to engage and inspire audiences, the images provide an annual snapshot of the ‘state of the global environment’ and the diversity of life in all corners of the Earth, facing the challenges of an uncertain future.

Manawatū Wildlife Photography Competition
Do you have creative flair and keen powers of observation? Can you stop an animal in its tracks with the click of a button? Capture the scenic grandeur of the wider Manawatū? The Manawatū Wildlife Photography Competition is open to amateur photographers living in Manawatū.
Have your say!
We’ll soon be redeveloping our long-term exhibition on the natural history and environments of Manawatū – Te Awa. You might know this as our “river” exhibition – or the area with the cave.
We’d like your opinions on what you think of the exhibition now, and how we might improve the existing experience. If selected to take part, you will need to visit Te Manawa and Te Awa exhibition and note down your thoughts, and participate in a follow up phone interview between 24 May – 4 June.
