Tureks International Exhibition, organizer of ATRAX Expo, is relaunching its long-standing ATRAX STAR Awards under a new identity: ATRAX CITY AURA AWARD. With an expanded scope, renewed vision, and stronger international focus, the program will recognize outstanding projects, products, and solutions that enhance urban life and create memorable experiences.
Designed to celebrate excellence in entertainment, recreation, landscape, sports, events, and public spaces, ATRAX CITY AURA AWARD will honor innovative initiatives that make cities more livable, attractive, and experience-driven.
The New Value of Cities: Experience
Cities today are no longer simply places to live—they have become destinations where people connect, explore, relax, play, and create memorable experiences.
Parks, theme parks, water and wellness facilities, event venues, digital urban infrastructure, recreational spaces, and innovative public environments are increasingly defining a city’s identity and quality of life.
Developed in response to this transformation, ATRAX CITY AURA AWARD aims to recognize the projects, products, and applications that shape exceptional urban experiences while promoting best practices and inspiring the future of city development.
The program also seeks to strengthen collaboration across industries, encourage innovation, and support a new vision of urban development centered on experience, wellbeing, and quality of life.
