When should I book my flights?
We'll be releasing exact venue information in the coming months! It is likely that you will fly into Istanbul – IST. Booking flights May-August 2025 will work for most individuals. If you booked an “All-In” ticket, we’ll be in touch and take care of everything.
What dates will I have a hotel room?
Rooms will be booked to check in the 21st and depart the 26th (5 nights to accommodate for flying in the night before the conference and leave the next day.) If you’d like to stay in Istanbul a few more days, just let us know and we can recommend sight-seeing options as well as help customize your hotel dates.
What hotel will I stay at? Can I book my own?
We are striving to ensure all guests can stay at the venue or within 1.5 miles. Many of our venue quotes are contingent upon hotel room occupancy, so booking blocks up front helps ensure we can get access to the best venues for the conference. Since Istanbul is almost twice the size of New York, we are selecting hotels that ensure no one’s experience is adversely affected by traffic.
Why Istanbul?
We want our conference to show the best of Türkiye’s Bible history. Istanbul is a highly accessible location for pastors around the world. It offers great infrastructure for hosting conferences while still being close enough to Nicea for a day-trip.
What if we would like to see more of Türkiye or Greece?
If you’re looking to tack on a few days in Istanbul we are happy to help with recommendations. If you want to see more of the country, Enjoy Tours is offering a combined ticket that includes a longer tour of Biblical sites that will run before and after the conference.
Are tickets refundable for personal circumstances?
Early bird tickets are non-refundable for personal circumstances. However, all tickets may be transferred to another attendee by contacting the Nicea team. Additionally, travel insurance is available at checkout, which can also cover a variety of circumstance changes.
Are tickets refundable for force majeure?
In the case of global, unforeseen events (e.g., COVID-19) that substantially disrupt global travel, we will attempt to refund ticket prices less any venue/logistical costs incurred.
How will I receive my conference pass?
You'll receive a confirmation email shortly after your purchase, and your conference pass will come through email before the start of the conference.
Can I change the names of registrants?
We are happy to change names/details on registrants for any admission ticket free of charge. This may not be possible for airfare.
Do you offer discounts?
Other than our early bird discount (until December 27) we offer group discounts to groups of 10 or more. When you have a group of 10, just send us a message and we will send you a private discount code for your group.
Do you sell single day passes?
No, we only sell full tickets.
Do you need volunteers?
At this point in time, we are using volunteers based in Türkiye.
Will there be a livestream?
We’re focused on creating an intimate in-person experience for this conference.
Any other questions?
