Festival, is an annual international cultural celebration in Istanbul, created by Liberatum and first held in 2010 to celebrate the city's 2010 European Capital of Culture status. The festival was created and founded by the famed creative director Pablo Ganguli. Film director Alphan Eşeli and his wife Demet Muftuoglu, and Dazed & Confused editor Jefferson Hack were producers.

It was the first venture of Liberatum in Turkey. Istancool was sponsored by the Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Guler Sabanci, W Istanbul and Vakko. Guests have included global creative icons V. S.
