Istanbul is set to solidify its position as a global trade show hub with the ambitious expansion of the Istanbul Fair Center (IFC), the city’s largest exhibition center. İTO (Istanbul Chamber of Commerce) has revealed plans to complete the project by 2024, making IFM the largest exhibition space in Istanbul.
The expansion project is a response to the increasing demand for exhibition space in Istanbul. As a city strategically located at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, Istanbul has become a magnet for international trade shows and events.
Creating a World-Class Exhibition Hub
The expanded IFC will boast an impressive capacity to host a wide range of events simultaneously. This will not only attract more international organizers and exhibitors but also provide a significant boost to the city’s economy. The project underscores Istanbul’s commitment to becoming a global leader in the exhibition and convention industry.
The IFC expansion is part of a broader strategy to enhance Istanbul’s infrastructure and attractiveness as a global business and tourism destination. With its strategic location, rich history, and vibrant culture, Istanbul is well-positioned to become a leading hub for international trade and exchange. The completion of the IFM expansion in 2024 is expected to mark a significant milestone in the city’s journey towards achieving this goal.
