Annwn Prize 2026

The Annwn Prize is the first global award that celebrates excellence in immersive storytelling. Four Worlds. One Venue.

These are stories you don't just watch, you step into. You're not on the outside looking in, you're part of the experience as it happens around you.

The Prize, launched in 2025 by Wales Millennium Centre and produced with Crossover Labs, marks a major new moment in the global arts calendar. Supported by Peter and Janet Swinburn, the winning artist or studio will be awarded £20,000 along with a bespoke residency to support the development of new work. 

The shortlisted works will be exhibited at Wales Millennium Centre from 27 May until 26 June 2026 and are (in alphabetical order): COLORED/NOIRE (Novaya – 35mins), CONSENSUS GENTIUM (Karen Palmer - 25mins), CONSTANTINOPOLIAD (Sister Sylvester - 52mins) and NOWISWHENWEARE (The Stars) (Andrew Schneider - 30mins).
