VELTRA Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Wataru Futaki), which operates the "VELTRA" online booking site specializing in local experience-based activities, has launched the "VELTRA x Tokyo Camera Club #VELTRAActivityClub Photo Contest 2026 Summer" in collaboration with "Tokyo Camera Club," one of Japan's largest juried photo submission sites. The contest began on Wednesday, July 1, 2026.

Background and Purpose of the Project

The long-awaited summer vacation season is finally in full swing. The true enjoyment of travel lies not only in the "destination" but also in the authentic experiences that can only be savored in that location and the once-in-a-lifetime encounters. This campaign aims to collect photos of activities enjoyed with all five senses at various locations, with the theme of "Summer Activities," and to convey the excitement of travel and the value of experiences to a wider audience. There are no restrictions on shooting equipment, and photos taken in the past are also eligible.
