The Bodrum International Ballet Festival, organized by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism’s Directorate General of Turkish State Opera and Ballet, will be held this year from Aug. 3 to Aug. 21. With the support of Isbank, dance companies from Türkiye and around the globe will meet in Bodrum, promising a celebration of artistic excellence and cultural diversity.

At the press conference attended by Isbank General Manager Hakan Aran and State Opera and Ballet General Director and Artistic Director Bedri Tan Sagturk, details about the 21st edition of the Bodrum International Ballet Festival were shared. During the meeting, Aran and Sagturk signed the cooperation agreement.
