The Alanya stand drew significant interest at the International Tourism Fair held in Vienna, the capital of Austria. Approximately 800 companies from 70 countries are conducting promotional activities at the Messe Exhibition Center. At the fair, the Vienna Culture and Tourism Attaché opened a stand in an area of approximately 200 square meters on behalf of Türkiye. There are 10 participants from Türkiye, including the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and Turkish Airlines (THY), as well as hotels, destinations, travel agencies, and tour operators.

Alanya is being represented at the fair by Cengiz Dönmez, a Member of the Board of Directors of the Alanya Tourism Promotion Foundation (ALTAV). Stating that Hilal Demirel, the Cultural and Promotion Attaché responsible for Austria, provides great support to Alanya's promotion efforts, Dönmez said, “Ms. Demirel values Alanya. She enabled us to hold meetings with important people. She supports us in every matter. We presented her with an Alanyaspor jersey as a gift.
“WE HAVE PERSUASION EFFORTS”
“There was heavy journalist traffic on the first day. Meetings were held with Croatian, Slovak, and Austrian journalists and writers. An intensive agenda regarding Turkey and Alanya was discussed. In our interviews, we explained that negative developments are occurring worldwide and that our Alanya is a safe city. I believe our persuasion efforts will yield positive results. Additionally, Chargé d'Affaires Ali Kaan Orbay and Consul of Vienna Kağan Atay visited our stand and conveyed their wishes for success to Alanya,” he said.
