Antalya community & events
New in Antalya? Make your first friends in the city with seafront walks, book chats and small meet-ups. Türkçe
In short: The IONETO Antalya community brings newcomers and locals together through small, regular meet-ups: late-afternoon walks along the Konyaaltı promenade, book chats in a courtyard and get-to-know-you evenings. We are planning the first Antalya events: leave your interests in the form and you'll hear when an event opens. As our motto says: a happy person lights up the world.

Seafront walks for newcomers
Easy-paced late-afternoon walks along the Konyaaltı promenade are a simple way to get to know the city and each other. Afterwards we sit in a café and talk through practical questions about transport, markets and paperwork.
Book club
Once a month a chosen book becomes the topic of conversation in a shaded courtyard or café. Books can be in Turkish or English; the goal is meeting new people as much as reading.
Volunteer and outdoor events
As in Fethiye, volunteer events such as beach clean-ups and picnics are planned for Antalya too. If you have an idea or want to host a meet-up, tell us in the form.
