The OpenBar Selects series continues on Friday 13 November at Openbar in Alaçatı, with Maono and Emir behind the booth from 21:00. Openbar is built around a speakeasy atmosphere set apart from the bustle of Alaçatı. The venue on 12017. Sokak pairs its open days, dedicated to selected DJs, with an ever-changing cocktail menu and a rotating pop-up kitchen. That is where the Selects series takes its name: every open night is given over to a DJ or duo who bring their own selection to the programme. Musically the venue does not tie itself to a single genre; its own description stresses a free movement between styles. The 2026 season also includes vinyl sets and live performances alongside DJ sets. Alaçatı quietens down in November, but weekend traffic continues. A 21:00 start also leaves room for anyone who wants to begin the night with dinner and cocktails.

Feyza Emir began her career as a Suma Beach resident in 2015 and has since played at events such as Sonar Istanbul and Big Burn Festival. Her sets trace a line from old-school house to Detroit techno, with vintage disco touches added along the way. Öğem Yılmaz started DJing at Flavio in Istanbul before joining the creative teams behind Wake Up Call, Suma Beach and Suma Han, and also works on the promotion side. Known for selections that move between acid house, indie dance, techno, old-school house and minimal, Yılmaz has played Sónar Istanbul and MIX Festival and shared stages with names such as Roman Flügel, Magda and DJ Rolando. What the two share is a groove-led approach with the dancefloor at its centre. Saturday night in Alaçatı should bring a house and techno selection rooted in the 90s and early 2000s.
