International Antalya Film Festival, is one of the oldest film festivals in Europe and Asia, it is also the oldest and longest running film festival in our country. In the mid 1950s, theatre and concerts began to be held at the ancient Aspendos Theatre, which became the foundation of the International Antalya Film Festival. Due to great interest from the public, performances done in the summer every year became a tradition and this festive mood continued until the beginning of the 60s. For many years the late Dr. Avni Tolunay who served as Mayor took on board cinema in 1963, turning it into the " International Antalya Film Festival ". At first Dr. Avni Tolunay, was in search of an emblem and sculptors Gazanfer Karacehennem and Behlul Dal integrated the regions symbol, the orange, sea, historical elements and Venus into the statue. Not only was the orange used in the emblem, but also became the name of the film festival.
