New • Europe, Istanbul
Hello, football fan! My name is Ogulcan (OG shortly) and I have been going to football games in and out of Istanbul since 2002.
There are 8 Istanbul teams in the Turkish Super Leauge at the moment: Fenerbahce, Besiktas, Galatasaray, Kasimpasa, Basaksehir, Pendikspor, Karagumruk and Istanbulspor.
Being an away fan is always fun in Turkey. You get to travel and visit different colorful towns. Istanbul is an enormous city with 22 million+ people living in it. So each town has some significant history and point of interest.
From the very west to the very east it can take approximately 3-4 hours to reach Istanbul. So this means regarding the location of the stadium we might have to drive for a while. Please ask the itinerary for each game you would like to attend.
In the derbies between the big three, for security reasons, away fans are not allowed since COVID-19. But do not worry. Other games in Istanbul are not being considered or categorized as big-deal derbies. So they are totally safe and fun! But if there is still a historical aspect and rivalry I will inform you and keep you updated about its story.
Let’s go have an adventure and be the minority that is hated by the majority in Istanbul!
Please Note:
*We will experience the match as fans of the team corresponding to the away side(right side) of the written football match.
*even though smoking in stadiums is forbidden this law does not apply and there is heavy smoking and secondhand smoke in all seats of the stadium
*Since the exact dates of some matches have not been announced yet, they are randomly scheduled depending on the weekend the matches are played. The entered match will be played on the same weekend, with a low probability of Friday or Monday, and a high probability of Saturday or Sunday.
