Host since 2024

As a lifelong soccer fan, the sport runs through my veins. There’s nothing like the rush of being in the stadium, hearing the chants, and feeling the energy of the crowd. Growing up in Turkey, soccer was more than just a game – it’s a passion that unites people, and that’s exactly why I love it. My name is Gamze, and I’m here to guide you through an unforgettable experience in Istanbul, home of Galatasaray, one of Europe’s most iconic football clubs. As a seasoned host with a deep knowledge of Turkish soccer culture, I’ve seen firsthand how a Galatasaray game can ignite the senses. Istanbul is the perfect place to witness this – where history meets the modern game, and where the fans’ passion is unmatched. I offer more than just a ticket to the game. I’ll take you behind the scenes, introduce you to the rich history of Turkish soccer, and guide you through the best spots for pre-game rituals and post-game celebrations. You’ll not only enjoy the match but also immerse yourself in the traditions and culture that make Istanbul a soccer lover’s dream destination!
