About TÜYAP Fair Convention and Congress Center

Tüyap was founded in 1979 by Bülent Ünal as Turkey’s first exhibition company. Headquartered in Istanbul, Tüyap operates in 6 different cities. The rapid growth of the company and increased projects led to the need for larger fairgrounds. To meet this need, Tüyap Istanbul Fair and Congress Centre was established in 1996.

Tüyap Fair Convention and Congress Centre is Turkey’s largest and only exhibition center operated by the private sector. In parallel with the growth in Istanbul, Tüyap also invested in Anatolia and opened fairgrounds in Bursa, Konya, Adana and Samsun. In addition, Tüyap has become a global exhibition organization with offices in Moscow, Tehran, Ljubljana, Belgrade, Tbilisi and Skopje and a network of representative offices in 27 countries.

On 1 June 2012, Tüyap merged with Reed Exhibitions (RX) and established a new company under the name Reed Tüyap Fuarcılık A.Ş. Thanks to this joint venture, the trade of the country and the region has developed, wider market opportunities have been provided and the importance of Istanbul in the world exhibitions has rapidly increased.
