In commemoration of 600 years of Polish-Turkish diplomatic relations, Adam Mickiewicz Institute has organized more than 80 cultural events across Turkey. The inauguration of the program back in March saw both countries' presidents and a crowd of 42,000 people gathered for an exhibition concerning the history of the two nations' relations. Sakip Sabanci Museum hosted this event.
Polish cinema, music and theater were present at the Istanbul Theatre Festival, Istanbul Music Festival, Istanbul Film Festival and the European Jazz Festival in Izmir. There is an Adam Mickiewicz museum in Istanbul. The namesake of the Polish culture institute died in Istanbul.
