Journey Overview
About Istanbul Expo Center (IFM)
Istanbul Expo Center (Istanbul Fuar Merkezi) is Turkey's largest exhibition venue, next to the former Atatürk Airport in Yeşilköy. It sits at the opposite end of the city from Sabiha Gökçen, which makes this one of the longest in-city transfers we run — and one where exhibitors regularly underestimate the time needed.
