International Poster and Graphic Design Festival | International competition

Chaumont (France) – For 23 years, the Chaumont Festival has supported the poster genre and its developments by holding an international poster competition. The competition has been endorsed by Icograda since 1990.  

In 2012, the competition is now reaching beyond posters so that the festival can broaden its scope to the full range of related media that make up contemporary graphic design. 

Graphic designers are thus invited to enter pieces representative of their work and the media they use. The judging panel will allocate them to one of the following categories:

Submissions to the 23 International Poster and Graphic Design Festival of Chaumont must be made online before sending any work.



Deadline for submissions is 5 March 2012.

Prizes:

First prize: EUR 7 500

Second prize: EUR 4 500

Third prize: EUR 3 000

The international competition judging panel is forthcoming.

French posters

The French poster submissions are evaluated by a separate jury. 



The Chaumont Festival is organised under the patronage of the Ministry of Culture and Communication.
