Galaxy S6 and S6 edge Launch Party to be Held on Floating Island in Turkey

As the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge hit the shelves around the world, a number of events are being held to celebrate the launch. Samsung Turkey will host a launching event on Friday, April 10 from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. (Eastern European time zone) in Istanbul.

The launch party will take place on Gelecek Benim, an artificial island that has been constructed exclusively for this event to make guests feel as if they have traveled to another galaxy. Set on the picturesque Bosphorus Strait, the mysterious structure, which has yet to be revealed, will be connected to the floating beach club of Suada via a futuristic bridge. Suada, known around the globe for its glamorous poolside parties and world-class cuisine, offers stunning views of the Kuruçeşme coastline.

After the unveiling of the structure on the night of the ceremony, the star-studded party will kick off with a light show, which will be followed by a spectacular water and laser show and a series of DJ performances.

One of the more anticipated performers of the evening is Turkish pop sensation Kenan Doğulu. Known for his impressive vocal talents, the musician will be performing at the event as a DJ for the first time in his career. TV stars Özge Gürel and Serkan Çayoğlu will also be in attendance as guests.

For those outside Turkey, the event will be recorded by a number of cameras, including one attached to a helicopter, and streamed on a live feed on YouTube (not available in Germany or the US). Video highlights of the party will also be posted on YouTube following the event.
