The annual AIB Portrait Prize returns in 2025, celebrating contemporary portraiture by Irish artists from Ireland and abroad, with a €15,000 prize for the winner. Running alongside it, the AIB Young Portrait Prize encourages creativity and self-expression among young artists up to the age of 18. Both competitions culminate in an exhibition of 40 shortlisted works, running from 8 November 2025 to 15 March 2026 in The Portrait Gallery. Winners will be announced at a ceremony in November 2025.
Entries for the AIB Young Portrait Prize 2025 will open in April. Full details on application dates and the submission process will be available at that time.
An exhibition sponsored by AIB, organised by the National Gallery of Ireland.
