Event overview
Eurobike Istanbul 2027 is the Turkish edition of the Eurobike bicycle trade fair, running 21–24 April 2027 at Istanbul Expo Centre.
It is a free, trade-only B2B show co-located with Motobike Istanbul, connecting bicycle, e-bike, parts and accessory brands with distributors and retailers from Türkiye, the Middle East, India, Russia and Europe.
The 2026 debut drew 174 exhibitors and more than 148,000 visitors across the combined Motobike and Eurobike halls.
TL;DR
Visitors get a compact, free trade show where Turkish manufacturers, importers and regional distributors meet in one venue. The co-location with Motobike Istanbul adds motorcycle retail and mobility buyers, widening the chance of finding a distribution partner or comparable product range in a single trip.
Exhibiting gives brands direct access to Turkish distributors, retail chains, e-commerce sellers and buyers from neighbouring markets, with the Eurobike name carrying weight among cycling specialists. A first-edition footprint of 174 exhibitors means a stand can still stand out without the scale of Eurobike Frankfurt.

Edition recap
The first Eurobike Istanbul ran 22–25 April 2026 alongside the 18th Motobike Istanbul at Istanbul Expo Center. The combined show reported 174 exhibitors, more than 500 brands and over 148,000 visitors across four days.
New this edition
Eurobike debut in Türkiye
The first Turkish edition of the Eurobike brand, staged with the established Motobike Istanbul.
SourceImpact
Eurobike Istanbul debuted in 2026 as a co-located satellite of Motobike Istanbul, giving the Eurobike brand a Turkish and regional bridgehead. The combined show reported 174 exhibitors, over 500 brands and more than 148,000 visitors, a strong first outing for a new B2B cycling platform.
Audience quality
The audience is a mix of Turkish trade buyers and regional distributors, with consumer visitors admitted alongside professionals on the shared Motobike floor. Exhibitors should expect high footfall but qualify leads carefully, because not every visitor is a purchasing decision-maker.
Exhibitor outcomes
ROI depends on distribution goals: brands seeking a Turkish importer can meet several candidates in four days, while those chasing immediate orders should pre-book meetings. The free trade entry keeps visitor acquisition cost low but raises the need for disciplined lead capture.
Intelligence
Key market insights, trends, news and related events to help you understand the bigger picture.
Why it matters
Türkiye combines domestic bicycle manufacturing with growing e-bike assembly and exports to Europe, the Middle East and Central Asia. Istanbul sits at the junction of those flows, so a Eurobike-branded show here gives international brands a lower-cost route into Turkish distribution and gives Turkish makers a showcase for export buyers.
Key trends shaping this market and its wider industry.
E-bike localisation
Turkish assemblers are expanding e-bike and pedelec production for domestic and export demand, creating demand for drive systems, batteries and components.
What it changes: Component suppliers can meet assemblers and importers in one place.
SourceTwo-wheeler consolidation
Eurobike Istanbul runs alongside Motobike Istanbul, putting bicycle, motorcycle and micromobility buyers on one shared floor.
What it changes: Exhibitors reach a broader dealer base without a second show.
SourceRegional distribution shift
Buyers from the Middle East, India, Russia and Europe use Istanbul as a convenient visa and logistics hub for sourcing.
What it changes: A Turkish distributor can serve several neighbouring markets.
