Fair programme and details

FDI Istanbul 2026 takes place from 24 to 26 September 2026 at the Istanbul Fair Center. The fair runs under the theme Where Design Leads and brings together 90 brands, four exhibitions with 85 curated selections and more than 30 speakers, with buyers attending from 23 countries.

The speaker list is led by the industrial designer Ross Lovegrove. The programme is built around design driven manufacturing, sustainable production and branding, which places it closer to the furniture and product end of the field than to a building exhibition, though the curated shows are worth the visit for anyone working on interiors.

Dates and venue

The fair is open from 24 to 26 September 2026 at the Istanbul Fair Center in Yesilkoy. Visitor registration and the full programme are published by the organisers.
