Central Anatolia Development Agency launches 25M TL tourism support program

The Central Anatolia Development Agency (ORAN) has introduced the ‘2026 Discover Central Anatolia Alternative Financial Support Program’ during an information meeting in Kayseri. The initiative aims to increase the visibility of the region's natural, historical, and cultural assets by establishing Central Anatolia as a unified ‘Tourism Corridor.’

With a total budget of 25 million TL, the program provides non-refundable grants covering up to 75% of the costs for eligible tours. The primary objectives are to increase the number of overnight tours and extend the duration of stays in the provinces of Kayseri, Sivas, and Yozgat, thereby boosting regional tourism revenue.

To qualify, planned tours must meet specific route integration requirements outlined in the program guide. Applications must be submitted via the ORAN website at least 15 days before the scheduled tour date. The deadline for applications is December 15, 2026, and all activities must be completed by December 29, 2026.
