The Blaze play Küçükçiftlik Park on Friday 9 October 2026. Read the ticket title before you get attached to the videos. This date is billed as a DJ set, not the live show with the full visual apparatus. Territory is still the track that travelled. The films from the videos may not be on the wall.
Jonathan and Guillaume Alric sit between house, downtempo and atmospheric electronica. A DJ set can still be a very good night. It is a different night from the one the videos promise.
To be clear about what this page is: this is not our event. Saucy runs its own nights in Istanbul, and this is not one of them. We are reporting somebody else's date because the billing is easy to misread, and because this park is a room we know. There is nothing for sale here.
Why the ticket title matters
Epifoni is running the date as part of a three-city run. Biletix lists The Blaze DJ Set at 22:00. Under-12s are not admitted and every person needs a ticket.
If the cinematic part is why you came, check Epifoni's own page before you spend the money. The records will be there. The films may not.
A 22:00 listed start is when it starts, not when you have missed it. This is a later park night than Boris Brejcha in the same field two weeks earlier. The two crowds are not the same. This one is warmer, later and built around atmosphere rather than one producer's full production.
Küçükçiftlik Park in October
The venue is a large open-air park space in Şişli, general admission and standing, on grass and hard standing rather than a raked floor.
On capacity, we are going to decline to give you a number. Published figures vary depending on the source and the configuration. What matters practically is that it holds several thousand people and that it feels like a field, because it is one.
Three things about being in that room in October:
Sound falls off toward the back. For a duo whose appeal is atmosphere and production detail, further forward is worth more than more comfortable.
October nights in Maçka are cooler than September. A layer you can dance in is the right call. There is little useful cover if it rains.
The exit is the venue's weak point. A standing crowd leaves at once, onto a limited number of streets, at the same moment several thousand people open the same taxi app.

Getting home on a Friday
9 October 2026 is a Friday. Several major metro lines run through the night at roughly 30-minute intervals.
The practical sequence is the same as any Küçükçiftlik night:
- Walk ten minutes toward Şişli or Mecidiyeköy before you open a taxi app. That is worth real money.
- The M2 is your friend. The park sits near the Şişli-Mecidiyeköy end of the corridor, and on a Friday night the line is running.
- If you are heading to the Asian side, check the Marmaray and the M4 rather than assuming a taxi.
Our metro hours guide has the first and last trains line by line.
Who this is for
Go if you want the records in a field, late, and you have made peace with a DJ set rather than the live visual show.
Think twice if you came for the films, or if you wanted to sit down.
Epifoni is also running İzmir and Ankara dates around this one. The Istanbul ticket is only Istanbul.
As above, this is somebody else's show. If you want to know what Saucy is actually running, that is on Instagram.
Verify before you travel
We checked Istanbul's autumn 2026 listings carefully and the aggregator data was poor: of three major shows we verified, one had been cancelled while ticket sites still listed it as available, and one was actually taking place in Athens rather than Istanbul.
This date appears on Biletix as The Blaze DJ Set and on Epifoni's own event page. Confirm against those before you book travel around it. Our concerts guide explains how to check a date properly.
Last checked: 19 August 2026.
