About this story
The third Adana Arch Fest, organized by the Adana Branch of the Chamber of Architects (TMMOB Mimarlar Odası Adana Şubesi), is scheduled for October 15–17, 2026, at the Adana Museum Complex. The official festival site identifies the theme as “Kurmaca” (fiction), names architect Nilüfer Kozikoğlu as curator and Prof. Dr. Celal Abdi Güzer as adviser, and describes a program of workshops, exhibitions, and installations exploring architectural narratives through materials and structures. ArchDaily additionally reports an exhibition of invited contributors’ “fictive cities,” a modular pavilion made from prefabricated concrete elements in collaboration with Kambeton, interviews hosted at the pavilion, projects by young architects responding to Adana and the museum, and a student ideas competition. These specific program details should be confirmed against the organizer’s latest schedule.
