TEKNOFEST 2026 IS COMING TO ŞANLIURFA!

On the journey we embarked on with the goal of a Turkey that develops and produces technology, we will hold the TEKNOFEST Aerospace, and Technology Festival, implemented under the leadership of the Turkey Technology Team Foundation and the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Industry and Technology, in Şanlıurfa on September 30 – October 4, 2026.

In this unique city, one of the most ancient settlements in human history, we will bring together the inspiration we draw from the past with our confidence in young people and the technologies of the future.

Implemented through the partnership of public institutions, the private sector, academia, and civil society organizations that play a critical role in the development of national technology in Türkiye, TEKNOFEST stands out as the world’s largest aerospace and technology festival. The first step we took with great excitement in 2018 has today evolved into a strong and sustainable ecosystem that increases interest in technology across all segments of society through technology competitions, breathtaking air shows, planetariums, simulation and experience zones, workshops, exhibition and fair areas, concerts, exhibitions, stage events, and various activities.

With the aim of turning the dreams of hundreds of thousands of young people into reality, we organize technology competitions in various categories as part of TEKNOFEST. Across a wide range of fields—from aerospace to artificial intelligence, from the defense industry to energy and agricultural technologies—we encourage young people to produce, develop, and succeed together. In line with this vision, we aim to contribute to Türkiye’s transformation into a society that develops and produces technology within the framework of the National Technology Initiative.
