About this venue
Tofas Nilufer Spor Salonu is a modern multi-purpose arena built to standards suitable for international sporting competitions. Covering approximately 9,240 square metres and accommodating around 6,800 visitors, it ranks among Bursa’s notable indoor sports venues. Its functional architecture and stands positioned close to the court are particularly well suited to basketball, while the flexible interior can also host other sporting, entertainment and family events.
Tiered seating provides clear views from different sections of the arena, while the enclosed layout keeps crowd noise concentrated and creates an energetic event atmosphere. Clearly arranged entrances and circulation areas make it easier to reach the seating sections, although the availability of food, drinks and additional visitor services may vary according to the event and its organiser.
The arena is located at Fethiye, Nilüfer Hatun Cd. No:133, Bursa, Turkey, in the Nilüfer district. A bus stop is situated directly opposite the venue, leaving only a short walk between public transport and the entrance. Visitors arriving by car should allow additional time to find parking during popular events, while broader information about travelling around Bursa is provided further down the page.
About the city
Bursa, set between the Sea of Marmara and the slopes of Mount Uludağ, is a natural hub of experiences that blends sport, music, and a vibrant urban pulse. With a strong identity and a lively cultural scene, Bursa draws visitors who want more than the event itself—an authentic atmosphere, local flavors, and a city rhythm you can feel from the very first step.
Getting in and moving around is easy thanks to Bursa’s practical, well-organized transport network. The backbone is BursaRay (the city’s rapid rail system), supported by BurTram tram lines and bus routes linking key districts and major interchanges. If you fly in, Bursa Yenişehir Airport is the region’s main airport, while many overland arrivals use Bursa Şehirlerarası Otobüs Terminali. Traveling from Istanbul, the fast sea service BUDO to Mudanya offers a comfortable alternative, and continuing into the city is straightforward via local connections—ideal for reaching arenas and stadiums without hassle.
Before or after a concert or match, Bursa rewards curiosity with layers of history and places best enjoyed at an unhurried pace. Wander around the Ulu Cami and historic bazaars, stop by Koza Han for tea-scented ambiance and the feel of old trading Bursa, or head to Cumalıkızık to experience traditional architecture and a calmer tempo. For views and a nature break, Bursa Teleferik carries you toward Uludağ, where fresh air and panoramas neatly round out the day.
Staying in Bursa fits a wide range of budgets and travel styles—from central hotels near historic areas to comfortable options in quieter neighborhoods. The city is also known for its food—İskender kebap and chestnut-based sweets are frequent favorites—and for a tradition of thermal baths, perfect for unwinding after an intense evening. Taken together, Bursa is a destination where the event becomes just one, but important, part of a broader experience.
