Under the patronage of the Turkish Ministry of Defense, the International Defense Industry Fair (IDEF) takes place every two years at the Tüyap Fair Convention & Congress Center in Istanbul, now ranking as the fifth-largest defense trade show worldwide. At this significant information and communication platform for the industry, selected trade visitors can gain an overview of the latest developments in ground, naval, and air defense by presenting their invitation card. Exhibits include vehicles, military equipment, training and simulation, as well as measures for transport and logistics support. Defense equipment of Turkish production is also gaining increasing importance. Strategically located at the junction between continents, Istanbul is an ideal location for hosting IDEF, particularly considering the political situation at Turkey's borders and the North African coastal regions. The spacious Tüyap Fair Convention & Congress Center offers all the amenities and technical standards of a modern exhibition center.
On the whole the organisers welcomed on the 4 days of the fair, from 17. August to 20. August 2021, about 1238 exhibitors from 53 countries and 68795 visitors from 94 countries on the IDEF in Istanbul.
The IDEF takes place biennially, and therefore for the 17th time previsibly in July 2027 in Istanbul.
