Launched by the Republic of Turkey's Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the Turkey Culture Route Festival stands out not only as the most comprehensive and largest festival in Turkey, but also as one of the most significant cultural events worldwide. Since its inception in 2021, the festival has enabled millions of people across an increasing number of cities each year to engage with culture and the arts. Aiming to elevate the brand value of cities across Turkey and transform each into a hub of cultural and artistic attraction, the Turkey Culture Route Festival also makes a substantial contribution to our country's international brand identity. With a growing number of events, artists, and enthusiastic participants each year, the festival continues to bring people of all ages together through culture and art. In 2026, it is set to take place in 26 cities, preparing to meet art lovers across the country.
