How can international travelers buy tickets for football matches, concerts and events in Istanbul?

International visitors need to obtain a Passolig supporter card themselves, with their photo, to enter a football stadium; entry is not allowed without it. After getting the card, wait for sales to open and buy through Passo rather than sending money to unofficial intermediaries.

Football tickets in Turkey are purchased through Passo; during registration, select the club you support. Monitor the site for sales openings, including matches with a limited away-supporter allocation, and buy promptly when sales begin.
