## Key facts

- **Organiser:** Teknik Fuarcılık (under TOBB supervision)

## Overview

ITM fills the halls at Tüyap in Büyükçekmece, on the far western edge of Istanbul. Machinery exhibitors usually arrive days early with installation crews, so rooms in Beylikdüzü and Büyükçekmece go first and the remaining options are often in Yeşilköy, Ataköy or the city centre, 45–90 minutes away in fair-week traffic.

We book hotel blocks for stand crews and visiting delegations, run daily shuttles between hotels and Tüyap, and handle airport meet-and-greet at Istanbul Airport. For machinery groups bringing customers from abroad we arrange client dinners on the Bosphorus, factory-visit transfers to Bursa, Çorlu or Denizli, and short leisure programmes once the fair closes.

BravoDays is an independent ground-services provider and is not affiliated with the organizer of ITM – International Textile Machinery Exhibition. Tickets, stand space and official programmes are handled by the organizer; we take care of rooms, transport and hospitality around the fair.
