Ülker Sports and Event Hall, sports venue in Istanbul, Turkey
The Ülker Sports and Event Hall is a modern venue in Ataşehir, Istanbul, that can hold more than 13,000 spectators for sports matches and accommodates concerts and other events. It features comfortable seating areas, VIP boxes, restaurants, and dressing rooms for teams and performers.
The hall opened in early 2012 and hosted its first basketball game between Fenerbahçe and EA7 Emporio Armani in January of that year. Since then, it has developed into the primary venue for major sports competitions and international performances in Istanbul.
The hall's name reflects its main sponsor Ülker, a major Turkish company that shows its commitment to sports and entertainment. It serves as a gathering place where fans of local basketball teams and audiences for international performances come together regularly.
The hall is easily accessible by the M4 metro line and numerous bus services connect the area to different parts of the city. Parking is available around the venue for those traveling by car.
The venue features one of Europe's largest scoreboards weighing over 28 tons and a 360-degree LED ring around the upper seating areas that illuminates impressively during events. This sophisticated lighting system completely transforms the interior atmosphere for visitors.
