A long-standing institution in Istanbul’s cultural landscape, the Institut Français de Turquie works to strengthen the cultural and artistic dialogue between France and Turkey. Its central building in Beyoğlu, with its modern architecture and spacious interiors, hosts a diverse programme ranging from film screenings and exhibitions to concerts and talks.

As a meeting point for culture and language, the institute creates an international platform for artists, academics, and creative professionals. While promoting French culture, it also brings artistic productions from Turkey to global audiences, maintaining its place as a key destination on Istanbul’s cultural map for many years.
