    Intelligence

    Market context

    Key market insights, trends, news and related events to help you understand the bigger picture.

    Istanbul, Türkiye — the crossroads between European and Middle Eastern outdoor markets. Türkiye is one of Europe's largest caravan, motorhome and tiny-house manufacturing and export bases, and Karavanist concentrates national manufacturers, component makers and campsite operators at Tüyap with buyers arriving from the Balkans, the Gulf, Central Asia and the EU.

    Why it matters

    Attending KARAVANIST on 2027-02-03 to 2027-02-07 in Istanbul lets buyers and specifiers benchmark suppliers, see live demonstrations, and compress months of vendor meetings into one focused trade visit — worthwhile when your category roadmap aligns with the official exhibitor profile.

    Visa & entry documents

    Check the latest visa requirements and entry guidelines before travelling.

    Visa required
    ATA Carnet: check with organiser
    TypeWho needs itFeeProcessing
    e-Visa (electronic visa)Passport holders of e-Visa-eligible countries travelling to Türkiye for tourism or business, including visiting or exhibiting at a trade fair$55.00Online application with decision usually within minutes; apply at least a week before departure
    Visa-exempt entryTravellers from countries covered by Türkiye's visa-exemption regime for touristic and business visitsNot yet confirmedNo application required; entry assessed at the border
    Embassy or consulate visaNationals who are neither visa-exempt nor e-Visa eligible, and holders of official or diplomatic passports travelling on official business$60.00Apply in person or by courier at a Turkish embassy or consulate 3–6 weeks before travel

    Türkiye's visa regime is based on reciprocity, so some nationalities enter visa-free while others need an e-Visa or a consular visa. Match your passport against the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs guidance before booking travel for 3–7 February 2027, and carry a printed copy of your e-Visa and hotel booking on arrival.

    Exhibitors shipping caravans, tiny houses or component equipment should arrange customs documentation and ATA carnet handling with Tüyap and Turkish customs well before the 1 February build-up, as temporary vehicle import needs a registered agent at the border.

    Official visa page

    Weather

    February in Istanbul and Büyükçekmece is cool, damp and breezy: daytime highs of 9–11°C and overnight lows of 3–5°C, with roughly 11–12 rain days and about 80 mm of precipitation across the month. Cold snaps and occasional snow flurries are possible, and the Marmara breeze makes the coastal fairground feel colder than the numbers suggest. Pack a warm waterproof coat, layered knitwear, closed shoes and an umbrella, and add a light indoor layer because the Tüyap halls are large and cool between stands.

    Plan for the climate

    Check temperatures and pack accordingly

    Venue connectivity

    Türkiye's mobile networks are fast and widely available on 4G, with Turkcell, Vodafone Türkiye and Türk Telekom offering prepaid tourist SIMs that must be registered to your passport at the point of sale. Travellers staying on a home SIM should check roaming add-ons before departure, or use an eSIM from Airalo, Saily or Holafly that activates on Turkish networks without a shop visit. Wi-Fi is provided for visitors and exhibitors in the Tüyap halls, press and congress areas, and at the Tüyap Palas Hotel lobby, and Istanbulkart top-up machines accept cards for travel on the Metrobüs and metro.

    Cultural notes

    Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.

    Greetings and business cards

    Handshakes are standard in Turkish business settings, and business cards are exchanged at the start of a meeting — treat the card with care before putting it away. Tüyap also runs a QR-code contact exchange at Karavanist so visitors and exhibitors can share details directly on the stands.

    Tipping and hospitality

    Restaurants usually add good service at 5–10%, and taxi fares are commonly rounded up; hotel and cloakroom staff expect small tips. Turkish tea or coffee offered on an exhibitor stand is part of the relationship-building ritual, so accept it if time allows.

    Dress, weather and show-day etiquette

    Smart-casual business dress suits the Tüyap halls, with a warm coat for transfers to the outdoor demo village, and a scarf is useful for women planning to visit any mosque. Punctuality matters in meetings, and traffic around Büyükçekmece on fair days is heavy, so allow 30 minutes of buffer for the Metrobüs or taxi.

    Practical guides

    Visitor & Exhibitor Essentials

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

    Flights

    Destination: IST

    Turkish Airlines and its alliance partners fly into IST from most European, Gulf and Central Asian hubs, while Pegasus and AJet concentrate at SAW on the Asian side. February is low season on Istanbul routes, so fares are moderate; booking 6–10 weeks ahead and taking a morning arrival lets you reach the venue before the halls fill on opening day. Choose IST for the shortest transfer to Tüyap, and compare SAW only when the fare difference is material, adding roughly an hour of road time in each direction.

    Visa

    International visitors may need an entry visa (e-Visa (electronic visa), Visa-exempt entry, Embassy or consulate visa) depending on nationality. Confirm requirements on the official government site before travel.

    Estimated cost: Varies by visa type and nationality (check official site).

    Processing: Varies by nationality; apply several weeks before travel.

    Türkiye's visa regime is based on reciprocity, so some nationalities are exempt while others need an e-Visa or an embassy visa. Check your own passport against the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs guidance before booking travel for 3-7 February 2027.

    Transport

    Get to the venue and around the city with these options.

    Airport → venue: Primary gateways: Istanbul Airport (IST): 50–70 min off-peak, 90 min in weekday rush hour; Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW): 90–120 min off-peak, up to 150 min at peak. Allow road or rail time to Tüyap Fuar ve Kongre Merkezi; on-site parking is usually available at major exhibition venues.

    Hotel → venue: Precinct hotels near Tüyap Fuar ve Kongre Merkezi: On the Tüyap Fair Convention and Congress Center campus, Büyükçekmece: Tüyap Palas Hotel; Beylikdüzü, ~10 km east of the venue: Hilton Garden Inn Istanbul Beylikdüzü; Büyükçekmece town centre and Esenyurt corridor, 5–15 km from the venue: Budget tier — 3-star hotels and guesthouses in Büyükçekmece and along the D100 in Esenyurt.

    Ride-hail: Uber, BiTaksi and Martı all operate across Istanbul and cover the Büyükçekmece and Tüyap area, showing fixed fares in the app and removing language barriers with drivers. At IST and SAW use the licensed taxi ranks or the app pick-up zones in the terminal car parks rather than offers from unlicensed drivers in the arrivals hall. Metered yellow taxis are plentiful, but add 20–40 minutes to any estimate during weekday rush hour on the D100 and O-7.

    Public transit: Istanbulkart is the single card for Metrobüs, metro, tram, ferry and city buses, and top-up machines sit in every station; a single ride costs roughly TRY 40–60, with short transfers charged at a reduced rate. The 34BZ Metrobüs terminates at Tüyap, linking the venue directly with Avcılar, Cevizlibağ, Merter and Zincirlikuyu on the European side and Söğütlüçeşme on the Asian side. From Sultanahmet take tram T1 to Cevizlibağ or Yenikapı and change to the Metrobüs; from Taksim ride metro M2 to Zincirlikuyu, where the Metrobüs platform is a three-minute walk. From Sabiha Gökçen, the E10, E11 or 16S bus reaches Uzunçayır for the Metrobüs connection.

    Parking: Tüyap operates extensive on-site parking across the fairground for cars, coaches and caravan units, with overflow areas opened on the busiest weekend days; payment is taken at the entrance barriers. Passenger drop-off points sit at the main entrance gates, and build-up vehicles use separate access to the outdoor demo village. Arrive before 10:00 on Saturday and Sunday to park close to the halls, and follow marshal directions on the D100 approach.

    Weather

    Plan and pack for the event climate.

    Month: February 2027 (3–7 February)

    Temperature: Daytime highs of 9–11°C and overnight lows of 3–5°C, with colder snaps and the occasional snow flurry; February is often the coldest month of the Istanbul winter.

    Seasonality: One of the wettest months of the year in Istanbul, with about 11–12 rain days, roughly 80 mm of precipitation, persistent cloud and only 6–7 hours of daylight. The Marmara breeze over the Büyükçekmece fairground makes the outdoor demo village feel noticeably colder than the city centre.

    Packing: Pack layered winter clothing, a warm waterproof coat, closed leather or waterproof shoes and a compact umbrella. Tüyap's halls are large and cool between stands, so bring a light indoor layer plus gloves and a scarf for the outdoor caravan and camping village; smart-casual business dress with a heavier coat works for stand meetings.

    Plan your trip

    Planning

    Best day to visit: Wednesday 3 to Friday 5 February 2027

    Karavanist runs Wednesday to Sunday and mixes trade and public attendance. Professionals, dealers and importers do their sourcing and contract talks Wednesday to Friday while the halls are quieter and brand managers are available on the stands; Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 February draw the largest consumer crowds, with longer queues at vehicle viewings, packed Metrobüs services and higher hotel demand. Buyers flying in should plan a Wednesday-morning arrival and two full working days on the floor before the weekend peak.

    14

    Check passport validity and Turkish visa or e-Visa eligibility — Most foreign visitors need an e-Visa or embassy visa; check your nationality on evisa.gov.tr before booking.

    12

    Book flights to Istanbul Airport (IST) or Sabiha Gökcen (SAW) — Compare fares for arrival 2-3 February 2027 and departure after the show closes on 7 February.

    11

    Reserve a hotel in Beylikdüzü or Büyükçekmece near Tüyap — Venue-adjacent options such as Kaya Istanbul Fair & Convention Hotel (80 m) and Tüyap Palas (540 m) fill quickly for the 3-7 February dates.

    9

    Register online for a free visitor ticket — Free tickets are issued through the Tickets page at karavanistfuari.com; keep the confirmation for badge collection.

    7

    Download the hall plan, exhibitor list and product list — Use the Floorplan, Exhibitor List and Product List pages at karavanistfuari.com to shortlist caravan, tiny house and camping brands.

    6

    Plan your route to Büyükçekmece — Tüyap is the terminus of the Metrobus line; from SAW take E10, E11 or 16S buses to Uzunçayır and transfer to the Metrobus.

    5

    Pre-schedule meetings with exhibitors — Contact caravan, tiny house and equipment suppliers ahead of the show and use the QR business card exchange on site.

    3

    Prepare winter clothing and wet-weather gear — February in Istanbul averages 9-10 C by day with around 11-12 rainy days; bring layered clothing and an umbrella.

    2

    Confirm hotel check-in and airport transfer — Pre-book a taxi or rideshare from IST or SAW; IST transfers typically take 45-70 minutes to Tüyap.

    1
