Tersane Istanbul brought families together on the shores of the Golden Horn throughout the autumn of 2025 with the Fairy Tale Children's Carnival, held every weekend. Spreading across indoor and outdoor areas on Saturdays and Sundays, the carnival offered children a full day of workshops, stage performances, and play experiences. The carnival program was designed across a wide spectrum, ranging from creative workshops focused on painting, puppet making, and recycling to music and dance activities. Limited-capacity workshops were repeated throughout the day to suit every age group. Colorful decorations and play stations placed in the outdoor areas of Tersane Istanbul established a safe and enjoyable weekend route for families. The carnival atmosphere was complemented by special all-day menus from Tersane Istanbul’s food and beverage brands, including Günaydın Et Lokantası, Mykorini, Em Sherif, Lulu Lounge, Cup of Joy, Halcyon Days, and Godiva Café. The open-buffet Sunday Brunch served at Velena Food Market within Rixos Tersane Istanbul became a meeting point that crowned the carnival Sundays with flavor.
