Istanbul Tourism Fair

Dream Project, established in 2007, plays a pivotal role in enhancing Turkey's MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) industry while fostering internal unity and communication. It serves as a bridge, connecting the Turkish MICE market to global opportunities. A key initiative under this umbrella is the ACE of M.I.C.E. Exhibition, launched in 2014, which aims to elevate the global perception of Turkey's MICE industry through extensive marketing and networking efforts.

Since its inception, the event has partnered with EVINTRA, serving as a media and hosted buyer program partner, reinforcing its global outreach and influence. The ACE of M.I.C.E. Exhibition, formerly known by this name, has continuously evolved to meet the industry's needs. The event features a professionally curated client program designed to attract new customers and expand market reach. It also fosters industry unity and inspiration through networking events, summits, workshops, and seminars.

The ACE of M.I.C.E. Awards, celebrated for over a decade, is a prestigious event that drives sustainable growth, excellence, and global recognition within the Turkish MICE sector. Recently rebranded as Masters of Events by ACE of M.I.C.E. Awards, the event has evolved into a blend of business and entertainment, offering B2B meetings, networking nights, and an award ceremony, all of which have elevated the event's prestige.

The Istanbul Tourism Fair (ITF), organized by Dream Project, made a significant impact by bringing together global tourism leaders on October 4-5, 2023. With 13,500 professionals attending and 200 companies exhibiting, the fair facilitated 6,500 B2B meetings between 250 international buyers from 50 countries. The event introduced new products and services while shaping the 2024 tourism roadmap.

The second edition of the Istanbul Tourism Fair will be held on October 9-10, 2024, at Yenikapı-Eurasia Performance and Art Center. The fair aims to foster new collaborations, introduce emerging trends, and create networking opportunities. With seminar programs and the ITF Gala Party, the event will continue to be a pivotal meeting point for industry professionals, promoting early booking campaigns and hotel-agency contracts.
