If you’re a fan of viewing award-winning photography from all over the world, the Sony World Photography Awards exhibition 2025 is where you need to be this spring. Hosted by Somerset House throughout its captivating East and West Wings, you’ll encounter works from a curated selection of international photographers. Running from April 17 to May 5 2025, this is one exhibition not to be missed. 

Despite its annual return, this year’s Sony World Photography Awards exhibition brings something new to the table: a series of never-before-seen works from 2024 Photographer of the Year, Juliette Pavy – as well as an incredible spectrum of photography ranging from architecture and design to wildlife and nature to sports, documentary, portraiture and more. Whatever your genre, you’ll find something remarkable adorning Somerset House’s walls this year.

And while we’re on the theme of its range of award-winning togs, the 18th Sony World Photography Awards Outstanding Contribution to Photography award goes to Susan Meiselas this year, a highly acclaimed photographer whose documentary work spans ‘insightful portrayals of people’ within their communities and beyond. With beautifully curated excerpts from five of Meiselas’ projects, including Carnival Strippers and Pandora’s Box, this exhibition highlights what is ‘often hidden from public view’ and outlines recurring themes throughout her practice.

Not all getaways need to be booked months in advance. In fact, some of the best ones are the off-the-cuff, throw-caution-to-the-wind types. There’s something thrilling about spontaneity – which is why we’ve teamed up with Škoda to give one lucky winner the chance to embark on a spontaneous road trip.

Where to, you ask? We’ll be sending our winner (and three friends) to the stunning Lake District National Park from May 2-4, 2025. You could stay for two nights at the four-star Langdale Hotel, surrounded by gorgeous scenery and incredible walking trails. This luxurious hotel offers endless ways to recharge and relax (dip in the spa pool, anyone?). The competition also includes a guided kayaking tour, a Steam Yacht Gondola cruise for four people, and a self-guided audio tour of Lake District of Ambleside, Keswick and Ullswater. Naturally there’ll be breakfast and dinner in the hotel’s restaurant for the duration of your stay – as well as £250 spending money! 

The drive there will be just as spectacular. You can bet on any Lake District journey to involve sweeping mountain vistas, misty views over shimmering water and lush greenery. And for this journey, you’ll be in the new all-electric Škoda Elroq. This compact SUV is super-spacious inside with 470 litres of luggage, so you can take everything you need – and it has a maximum range of up to 360 miles*, making it perfect for road trips. Its compact size also makes it ideal for urban driving. Win-win! 

To win this Lake District road trip in a Škoda Elroq, simply enter your details in the form below, and answer the question: What’s the most spontaneous thing you’ve ever done? The competition will end on April 27, and you’ll need to be available to hit the road for your getaway on Friday, May 2. Good luck!
