Emblem People Passport

Celebrate the successful Emblem People Passport pilot at IFY 2026 in Yekaterinburg. Explore the public leaderboard and see how cultural connections become memories.

Yekaterinburg: a successful first pilot

Yekaterinburg · 11–17 September 2026

The Emblem People Passport pilot at IFY 2026 was a success. Participants turned real encounters into shared Dual photos, building a collection of cultural connections across Pavilions and regions.

Thank you to everyone who took part. This was a pilot project: a first chapter for People Passport, with more to learn and improve.

The festival leaderboard

Celebrate the collectors who explored the festival through the people they met. These are the current public rankings for the Yekaterinburg pilot, not a frozen final result.

Overall points = distinct Pavilions + distinct regions in qualifying festival memories. Each counts once per collector; repeated photos do not add points. Equal scores share a rank. Points are not a count of people met.

Only public festival memories and public profiles are included. Private, hidden, reported or deleted memories are excluded. Results can change after privacy changes or deletions.

Meet someone. Take a photo. Keep the memory.

Open the People Passport in the Emblem app and turn a real encounter into a collectible photo memory.

Take one Dual photo of yourself and your surroundings.

Choose a country, region or cultural Pavilion for your memory.

Review the photo and publish it publicly to your People Passport.
