All Things Urban Istanbul - An Interactive Community Dinner
An Interactive Community Dinner & Meetup
Join All Things Urban Istanbul for an informal community gathering bringing together people who are passionate about cities and urban life.
The evening will bring together urban planners, architects, designers, researchers, mobility professionals, sustainability practitioners, community builders, students, entrepreneurs, and anyone interested in cities and urban life.
This gathering is an opportunity to meet fellow urbanists, reconnect with familiar faces, make new connections, and exchange ideas in a relaxed and welcoming setting.
While Istanbul is often represented through its iconic landmarks, skylines, and postcard views, our everyday experience of the city is shaped by much more than that. The places we return to, the streets we walk through, the cafés where we spend time, and the memories we associate with them all contribute to how we experience the city.
Throughout the evening, we'll explore a simple question:
What is your Istanbul beyond its landmarks?
Through conversations and a few light interactive activities, we'll share stories, perspectives, and everyday experiences of the city while getting to know one another better.
We're inviting participants to:
• Meet fellow urbanists based in Istanbul
• Enjoy an informal summer evening together
• Exchange ideas, stories, and perspectives
• Connect with people working across different urban disciplines
• Explore Istanbul beyond its landmarks
Whether you've been part of All Things Urban for a while or are just discovering the community, you're very welcome to join us.
The event will be hosted by Fulya Halaçoğlu (Community Lead, All Things Urban)
