Izmir is well-known for hosting Turkey's oldest festival activity, the multi-theme Izmir World Fair, which takes place in early September. The event is organized by ZFA, a subsidiary of the Izmir Metropolitan Municipality. The social and musical events that take place concurrently with the commercial fair began as an ancillary activity to stimulate public interest in the fair, but over time the festival evolved into a school in its own right. This is one of Turkey's most popular events.

The most important religious celebration is Ramadan (Ramazan in Turkish), the Muslim month of fasting from water, food, tobacco, and sexual contact. Other than that, life goes on as usual throughout Ramadan, with most people fasting from sunrise until sunset. Some restaurants close for the duration or severely limit their menus, while others conceal their salons discreetly behind window coverings, but at the majority of the establishments, you will be treated with shockingly excellent grace. This is one of Turkey's most popular events.

The event of Kadir Gecesi (The Eve of Power), when Mohammed received the Koran from Kristus, occurs between the 27th and 28th days of Ramadan. Mosques, which have been beautifully lighted for the whole month, are packed all night, as it is believed that prayers at this time have particular significance. On Arife, the last day of Ramadan, people visit graves to pay their respects to their dead loved ones.

The third day, eker Bayram (Sugar Holiday), immediately follows Ramadan and is marked by family reunions, the distribution of gifts and candy to youngsters, and the prohibition of dining out. On the night of Arife, the night following Kadir Gecesi, you will need to make reservations for tables at reputable restaurants early. The 4thday Kurban Bayram (Festival of Sacrifice), when a sheep is sacrificed to commemorate Abraham's son Ishmael (a Koranic interpretation of the Testament account), is marked by a large slaughter of lambs and goats.

Cultural events are most interesting in towns and resorts with the means to attract internationally recognized performances. Almost every town has a yearly celebration, albeit many are only of modest interest to outsiders. Folk-dance events provide an opportunity to observe Turkey's greatest dance troupes perform a variety of Turkish dance repertoires in traditional costumes. What else do you want when traveling to such places? This is one of the most well-known Turkey festivities.

Camel wrestling isn't as popular as it once was in Turkey, and it's now mostly limited to the country's Aegean area, along the western and west seacoasts. A camel wrestling event is held in January at Ephesus, one of Turkey's most well-known ancient sites. Usually, a pair of male camels, known as bulls, compete for the attention of a stunning female camel, known as a cow. This is one of Turkey's most popular events.

The majority of the festival begins on September 5, but certain classical events are also conducted in July, August, and September. It is one of the most famous musical circumstances in Turkey's Gumusluk area. Symphony orchestras are an excellent way to unwind after a long day of touring. The program comprises shows and new releases from Turkey and throughout the world, making it a wonderful big yearly event. Make an attempt to get your seats well in advance, since admission passes sell out rapidly. This celebration is often held in and around Istiklal Caddesi in late March to mid April.

Last but not least, Turkey's largest rock event, Rock'n Coke, is clearly worth a visit. Rock'n Coke, which was founded in 2003 and is sponsored by Coca-Cola, is a large event that takes place at the Hezarfen Airfield and features notable performers from all over the globe, like Travis, Limp Bizkit, Placebo, Muse, Iggy Pop, Linkin Park, Gogol Bordello, and many more. If you enjoy music, this is a must-attend event for you. So, what are you waiting for? Book your tickets to Turkey today and experience these vibrant festivals with your family and friends.

Another important festival in Turkey is the International Aspendos Opera and Ballet Festival, which is held every year. The event is held at the almost 2000-year-old Roman Aspendos Theatre, which is located just outside of Antalya. Aspendos is one of the most well-preserved theaters in the world, hosting some of the world's top opera and ballet groups.

Cappadox is another one of Turkey's most intriguing events. Since 2015, the event has been held in the picturesque scenery of Cappadocia. It is a music, contemporary art, outdoor events, and culinary festival. Mercan Dede, Rhye, Ilhan Ersahin, Acid Pauli, and many other international acts have performed at the event. This location hosts one of Turkey's greatest cuisine events.
