Insta360 Global Awards 2026: $150,000+ Photo and Video Contest

Turn an original action, travel, portrait, street, sports, life, or night sequence into a global video-contest entry

The 2026 Insta360 Global Awards, supported by Leica, is unusually broad for a brand contest: multiple entries are allowed, monthly awards feed into the annual judging, and creators retain copyright. The device restriction matters—organizers may request original camera files, and heavily AI-altered work is not allowed.

Contest details

• Deadline: October 31, 2026.
• Who can enter: Individual creators worldwide; entries must be shot on an Insta360 or Antigravity device.
• Entry fee: No entry fee is listed.
• Prize: $150,000+ total prize pool with 100+ winners; annual video winners receive $3,000 cash plus gear, and category winners receive $1,200 cash plus gear.
