2026 Whitehorse Calendar

Calling for photo submissions for our 2026 Whitehorse Calendar.

We are asking our residents to show us (new or old) images of your favourite things in our beautiful area. It could be architecture, flora or fauna, a public artwork, cultural activity, or little-known spot you love visiting.

Your photos will go into the running to be part of our 2026 Whitehorse Calendar which is distributed to Whitehorse residents at the end of this year.

Submissions for the 2026 Whitehorse Calendar will open on 9am Monday 4 August 2025.

You can pick up a copy of the calendar from one of our Service Centres from early December.

Description of your entry

Where in Whitehorse was your photograph taken?

I understand that Whitehorse City Council may use my photographs for the 2026 Whitehorse Calendar and other publications, such as on the Council’s website and social media or in printed publications. I also understand that the Council may use/continue to use the photographs for up to 5 years after the competition. As the Council may use these photographs for up to 5 years, the Council’s officers may access them over that time when they are creating promotional material. Due to the nature of online publications, if a photograph is posted online, the Council will not be able to control whether it is copied or redistributed.

When the Council handles personal information, like personal photograph/s, it is required to comply with the Privacy & Data Protection Act 2014 (Vic). More information about the Council’s Privacy obligations can be found at whitehorse.vic.gov.au/privacy-statement.

I have read and agree to the above Terms and Conditions
