Catch a performance at Cemal Reşit Rey Concert Hall, one of Istanbul's best-known stages in Harbiye. Settle into your seat for an orchestral or contemporary concert.
Full description
Cemal Reşit Rey Concert Hall sits in the Harbiye neighbourhood and is regarded as one of the country's leading venues, the first in Turkey designed for classical music. Today the programme extends beyond the orchestra to pop, jazz and international touring artists, with reviewers noting comfortable seating, good lighting and effects, and reasonable ticket prices.
Some visitors point to ageing infrastructure, such as air conditioning and doors, so it is better judged on the music than the fit-out. Evening concerts are the main draw, making it a strong option for a cultural night out.

We had the pleasure to attend Lena’s concert at CRR. The venue was clean with comfortable seating. We enjoyed the concert 🎵. The whole atmosphere was amazing with cool lightning and effects. The price of the tickets was extremely affordable.
