Abbey Road Music Photography Awards announces winners

The Abbey Road Music Photography Awards have announced its winners, celebrating excellence in music-related imagery from 24,500 submissions across 42 countries.

Joshua Halling won the ‘Music Moment of the Year’ for a photograph taken during Oasis’s 2025 tour in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Rather than focusing on the Gallagher brothers, the image captures the intense energy of the Argentine crowd, featuring a fan in an Oasis shirt amidst a swirling crowd.

Other notable winners include Dara Petrova, who received the ‘Emerging Photographer of the Year’ award for her documentation of techno raves in Kyiv, Ukraine, which serve as social spaces for military personnel and civilians. Tom Pallant won for ‘Live Music’ for a shot of Yungblud in Luxembourg, while Wayne Large was recognized for his work documenting the 50 years of punk in Leicester, UK.
