For Film Photography Day 2016, we’ve got a bangin’ line-up of events in store for you — live unplugged music, in-store raffles, instant photo-booths, workshops, exhibitions, competitions, and loads more! Visit your nearest Lomography store for a refreshingly analogue weekend.

Hong Kong

There’s too much analogue goodness this year to contain in one day so this year’s celebration of film will be split into two rounds. On the first day, Saturday April 16th, come by our store for endless experimentation with instant cameras; from bizarre bokeh shapes to creating glowing art using a variety of light painting tools. We will top that off with tons of giveaways in a lucky draw and delicious food and cocktails! For round two, Sunday April 17th, join our very special guest host for a LomoWalk and fun film swap; the participant with the wackiest shots bags up a La Sardina.

Istanbul

We will start off in the LES, where we'll talk about Lomography and analogue photography in general. Then we will start shooting some interesting architecture around the neighborhood. Once all the films are finished, we will rewind and have all the participants randomly pick a used roll. We will continue the second part of the shoot in the old town, to Gulhane Park and shoot flowers as a second layer. This will allow people to mingle images and also experiment with new techniques! And of course there’s no such thing as Film Photography Day without a party! Join us in the evening for a very special exhibition displaying photos sent in from the community, snacks, drinks, and some groovy vinyl tunes.
