The International Family Fair, organized for the first time in Türkiye by the Presidency of Religious Affairs and the Türkiye Diyanet Foundation under the theme “Family and Goodness,” successfully wrapped up in Ankara.

Held on June 27–29 at the ATO Congressium Exhibition and Convention Center as part of the 2025 Family Year, the fair brought together institutions, NGOs, and academics working on family-related issues. Over three days, panels and conferences highlighted different dimensions of building, protecting, and sustaining family life.

Nearly 30,000 visitors explored the stands of 40 NGOs from Türkiye and abroad, took part in interactive workshops, and enjoyed cultural performances. Children were entertained with Rafadan Tayfa mascots and the dedicated Play Street, while adults visited exhibitions of traditional Turkish-Islamic arts, handicrafts, photography, and caricatures on Palestine.

Visitors praised the fair’s rich content and warm family atmosphere. The closing event concluded with a raffle, awarding Umrah trips to three couples.
