Emir Hotels hosted the 5th Olive Festival, an important part of its sustainable tourism approach. Organized within the scope of the World For Us program, the festival brought guests and participants together for enjoyable and educational activities throughout the day, starting with the olive harvest.

Organized to strengthen the connection with nature, preserve local values and raise awareness of sustainability, the 5th Olive Festival created colorful moments at TUI BLUE Xanthe.

Held within the scope of World For Us, which reflects Emir Hotels’ sustainability approach, the festival highlighted the journey of olives in nature and their place in our culture. Hotel guests and participants who attended the event became part of this special experience by harvesting olives from the trees with their own hands.

A Harvest Experience in Harmony with Nature

One of the most enjoyable moments of the festival, the olive harvest offered participants the opportunity to connect directly with nature. Through the harvesting activity among the olive trees, participants experienced firsthand the production process of the olives that eventually reach our tables. Harvesting together once again highlighted the value of sharing and contributing to nature through dedicated effort.

Where Learning, Creating and Sharing Come Together: Workshops

Various workshops held throughout the festival allowed participants to discover different aspects of olive and olive oil culture. Through hands-on activities, guests both gained new knowledge and became part of experiences centered on creation and sharing.

The activities, which attracted the interest and participation of people of all ages, aimed to raise awareness by bringing the concept of sustainability into everyday life.

A More Sustainable Future with World For Us

World For Us, launched by Emir Hotels, continues its efforts with a focus on environmental sustainability, social awareness and a sense of responsibility towards nature. The Olive Festival, organized in line with this approach, demonstrated that sustainable tourism is not limited to environmental practices alone; it is a holistic concept encompassing the preservation of cultural values, support for local production and increased community participation.

The 5th Olive Festival, held at TUI BLUE Xanthe, not only offered enjoyable moments surrounded by nature but also reminded participants of their responsibility to leave a more livable world for future generations.

Through the initiatives carried out under the World For Us umbrella, Emir Hotels continues to support sustainable tourism and develop projects that create value for nature and society.
