    The organiser has already confirmed the 31st edition for 13-16 October 2026 at Tüyap Fair and Congress Center in Istanbul. Expect the same broad packaging-plus-food-processing positioning, with continued emphasis on sustainability and export-oriented sourcing.

    Continuation of the anniversary-era scale and international buyer mix. Ongoing focus on sustainable packaging, smart packaging, and food-processing machinery. No official 2026 exhibitor or visitor target was published in the available source set.

    Impact

    A bigger and stronger platform

    The 2025 edition reinforced Eurasia Packaging Istanbul as a major Eurasia packaging trade platform, drawing 77,165 professionals from 141 countries and more than 1,250 exhibitors. The show’s scale spanned 16 halls and 120,000 square meters, with strong international participation across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. The official recap frames the event as the region’s central sourcing and business platform for packaging and food-processing technologies.

    Audience quality

    High-value decision-makers

    The audience mix was broad and commercially useful, with 14,017 international visitors and 63,148 domestic professionals in 2025. The brochure also notes visitors from 141 countries and lists strong sector coverage across packaging, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, hygiene, printing, distribution, retail, and logistics. That combination suggests a buyer-heavy audience with cross-industry procurement potential.

    Exhibitor outcomes

    Real business growth

    The organiser positions the fair as a direct-access sales platform to buyers from Türkiye, Europe, the Balkans, Russia, the Caucasus, Central Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. Official materials say exhibitors can meet decision-makers, expand dealer networks, launch products, and compare project-specific solutions in one place. The published satisfaction figures in the brochure also indicate strong exhibitor retention intent, though they are self-reported organiser data.

    Weather

    October in Istanbul is usually mild to cool, with daytime temperatures commonly around 18-22 C and evenings cooler. Rain is possible, so a light waterproof layer and comfortable walking shoes are sensible for the fair period.

    Plan for the climate

    Check temperatures and pack accordingly

    Venue connectivity

    Tüyap Fair Convention and Congress Center is in Büyükçekmece on Istanbul’s western side, reached mainly by road rather than metro. Practical access is by airport transfer, taxi, private car, shuttle arrangements, and city bus or coach links into the E-5 / western Istanbul corridor. It is also connected to central Istanbul, hotel clusters on the European side, and major city landmarks through the metropolitan road network.

    Cashless still works, but carry some cash

    Cards are widely accepted in Istanbul, but having some Turkish lira helps with taxis, small purchases, and incidental expenses.

    Dress for business and walking

    Trade-show attire is typically business-casual, but the venue footprint is large, so comfortable shoes matter more than formal footwear.

    Respect local etiquette

    A polite greeting and direct but courteous conversation work well in business settings; exchanging cards is common and appreciated.

    Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials

    Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.

    Flights

    Destination: IST

    For most international visitors, IST is the most practical arrival airport; SAW can be useful for selected routes, but west-side road travel to the venue is longer. Build in extra transfer time because the venue sits in the western Istanbul corridor.

    Visa

    For most trade-show visitors, Türkiye is visa-free or e-Visa eligible depending on nationality and passport type. Check the official Ministry of Foreign Affairs / e-Visa portal before travel.

    Estimated cost: Not yet confirmed

    Processing: Usually instant to a few hours for e-Visa applicants; embassy visas vary by mission.

    The e-Visa portal states it is for touristic and trade purposes only and that passports must be valid for at least 60 days beyond the duration of stay. Nationality-specific rules can change, so verify eligibility using the official portal.

    Airport → venue: Istanbul Airport (IST) is approximately 40km away; travel time is around 40-50 minutes by taxi or private transfer. Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) is considerably further on the Asian side.

    Hotel → venue: Staying in Beylikdüzü or Büyükçekmece allows for quick access via short taxi rides or the Metrobus.

    Ride-hail: Uber (which summons yellow/turquoise taxis) and BiTaksi are widely used across Istanbul.

    Public transit: The Metrobus terminates directly at the TÜYAP stop, making it an excellent and traffic-free way to reach the fairgrounds from central Istanbul.

    Parking: TÜYAP Fair Center provides a 4,500-vehicle parking capacity, including 1,600 covered spaces.

    Planning

    Best day to visit: 2026-10-14

    The second day (Wednesday) avoids the chaotic opening day registration rush and the final day's early teardowns, providing the most productive environment for serious technical discussions.

    T-60

    Book flights and secure accommodation early — Hotels in Büyükçekmece, Beylikdüzü, or Tüyap Palas book up quickly for this massive event. Staying close saves hours in Istanbul traffic.

    T-45

    Check Turkey e-Visa requirements and passport validity — Ensure your passport is valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry.

    T-30

    Register online via the MyTüyap portal — Secure your e-badge barcode early to avoid queues at the main baffle gates and lock in pre-show pricing.

    T-21

    Download the MyTüyap App — Essential for accessing the interactive 3D floor plan, exhibitor list, and digital business card exchange.

    T-14

    Shortlist must-visit exhibitors and map your route — With 14 halls, planning is crucial. Group your targets by hall (e.g., Food-Tech or Printpack sections).

    T-7

    Pre-schedule meetings with key suppliers — Use the app or direct outreach to ensure key contacts are available on-stand.

    T-2

    Pack comfortable walking shoes — The 120,000+ sqm venue requires extensive walking.
