Churchill Wild has opened its 14th annual photo contest for visitors in Churchill, Manitoba, as of March 16, 2026. This year’s event allows people who have stayed at the company’s remote lodges to share their pictures of Arctic wildlife and northern landscapes.

The competition is exclusive to guests who have taken part in a safari at one of the three local lodges, which include Nanuk Polar Bear Lodge, Seal River Heritage Lodge, and Dymond Lake Ecolodge. The photo contest highlights the unique experience of seeing animals like polar bears and wolves from the ground.

Organizers are looking for high-quality images that capture the natural environment found in northern Manitoba. The contest has been a regular tradition for over a decade and provides a platform for both amateur and professional photographers to showcase their work.

In the past, winners have received prizes such as credits for future wilderness trips or autographed books by nature photographer Dennis Fast. The family-owned company uses the entries to help celebrate the wildlife and scenery that guests encounter during their expeditions.
