Istanbul Prepares for Olive Fest 2026 at Fişekhane

Located in Istanbul's Zeytinburnu district within a 170-year-old industrial heritage site, Fişekhane is hosting Olive Fest 2026 on October 24-25. Inspired by the olive and harvest culture of the Mediterranean, the open-air festival opens its doors to visitors free of charge.

Organized under the umbrella of Özak Global Holding, Olive Fest 2026 brings together the heritage of the olive tree with creative workshops and well-being experiences. Throughout the event, DJ performances, yoga and breathwork sessions are held, alongside workshops on aromatherapy oil blending, skincare product making, mosaic, block printing, and kokedama.

The festival also features Everland, the children's world of Ela Excellence Resort Belek. Children connect with nature through ceramic, door ornament, olive cracking, and olive crown workshops. Meanwhile, another leg of the festival took place on October 16-17 at Ela Excellence Resort Belek in Antalya.
