It is the traditional home venue of major Turkish multi-sport club Fenerbahçe S.K. This stadium holds the distinction of being the first venue in the Ottoman Empire to host mass sporting (especially football) events. As such, it is a prime example of the sports build culture that has been transmitted to Modern Turkey.
