Last month, we invited everyone to join or organize a meetup in celebration of the website’s upcoming 20th anniversary, and since then, dozens of them have popped up all around the world! 😍 It’s been a joy to see all of these meetings being organized, and that so many of you are planning to attend. The celebrations don’t stop there though!
To mark this special milestone, we want YOU to be part of the celebration — with a photo challenge!
Your mission: grab 20 postcards and take a photo with them! You can hold them up, fan them out like a giant deck of cards, arrange them into a big “20”, or take them to your favorite spot in town, a sunny postbox, your local post office, or anywhere that brings a smile to your face. Be creative, be playful, and above all, be part of the party!
We’ve set up a special gallery to collect all your happy pictures from around the world. Just like in past years, it’s a way to celebrate together, even if we’re all in different places.
📮 Upload your photo and join the celebration! ✨
We can’t wait to see your smiling faces, your postcards, and the beautiful ways you choose to celebrate this special milestone with us. 📮 Let’s make this a birthday to remember — go go go!

What a great idea! Maybe I will be brave and participate. I usually don't like photos of myself. But I love postcards! :)

I ❤️ that idea. Count me in!
And there shall be me soon too 😁 thank you Postcrossing. ☺️❣️ Happy 20, hope to be a part of many many many more 20s to come 😁☺️
go go go!
@jjmedusa: I was immediately thinking the same thing 😆. But then: let’s just place postcards over the spots we don’t like on ourselves! Come on, 20 of them should do the trick 😅
This is great! Count me in! ❤️
Just posted my photo, what a fun initiative.
It’s a wonderful community and happy to be part of it.
On June 16, the Belgian Postal Services are issuing 5 stamps to commemorate 20 years of Postcrossing, showing the different stages of the postcard from origin to destination - shown on my photo. I will be using these when sending cards within Europe.
Such a fun and festive way to celebrate this amazing milestone! Thank you wonderful Postcrossing team for all the happiness you bring to the world❣️
Is there a time limit? I would love to join, but it is rainy outside, and won`t damage my loved cards.
Congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 🎊
What a *FABULOUS* idea! Go! Snap! Share!
Fantástico! mañana mismo hago la fotografía y la subo. Genial idea.
Felicidades por la idea.
Great & Fun Idea :) Count on me & my Postcards!
Happy 20th Anniversary Postcrossing.
Happy 20th Anniversary to the Postcrossing Team and all the Postcrossers around the world, best wishes ciao,
I bought 10 postcard to send out in celebration of 20 years to help celebrate this awesome achievement. I've been a member for 20 months.
Love this hobby and all 400 postcards I've received and sent.
Thank you for this wonderful opportunity.
Namaste 🙏 Gail Bacon
I love you guys so much! Tomorrow I'm having lunch in Venice with two people whom I met through Postcrossing four years ago, just after I moved to Italy. We have become the best of friends. We will have to do this challenge together!
How fun!!
I think to keep sending postcards is of paramount importance, but sometimes I nedd to take a brake, for two or thre months due to increasing prices of stamps, when it happens. Fortunatelly it not happens frequently. Postcrossing is simply an astonishing, amazing idea! I love you all!
So fun! Just took a pic and uploaded it. Was hard to fan out 20 cards and hold them while taking a selfie - but I did it! ;)
A fantastic way to celebrate. Happy Birthday. I will get a photo this weekend.
Postcrossing is just great and gives me so much pleasure. Many thanks to the team for their great work. 🤗
I love the connection with other Postcrossers!! Thank you all at Postcrossing!!
I wonder what the centennial celebration will look like in 80 years!
That's a very nice idea! Where can I find the special gallery you set up?
@eiramesor: There's the blue-underlined square icon "Upload Your Photo And Join The Celebration" above our comments here, so by clicking it & follow the steps, you can join by photo.
To all: I added my photograph to Your gallery today!. Thank you for the opportunity to celebrate Postcrossing's birthday that way. Good Idea!.
Happy 20th birthday! Can't wait to add myself to the gallery
