Important Notice Regarding Photography Rights at NPC Nordic Shows:

We want to remind everyone that all staged photography and paid content creation at NPC Nordic events is exclusive to our official photographers.

Competitors can secure their official stage photos through our exclusive team of photographers: @gym621 @simeonhagstromphoto

Please note: No other photographers are permitted to offer bookings, sell photo packages, or conduct paid content shoots during the event weekend. This policy ensures consistency, fairness, and respect for the work of our official media team.

While we deeply value the importance of content for our community and understand the desire to document these special moments, it's important to respect the guidelines we follow in alignment with NPC regulations. We work with this team of designated photographers throughout the weekend who have the exclusive right to shoot stage content for commercial purposes.

What is allowed:

* Spectators may take personal photos of friends and family from their seats, as long as it’s not in restricted areas near the stage.

Abusing this policy could force us to tighten restrictions and potentially ban cameras altogether, which is not something we want to do.

We ask for your understanding and cooperation to ensure a respectful and professional environment for all.

With appreciation, NPC Nordic

We're very proud to have the talented Gym621 and Simeon Hagström with us to capture this weekend!
