Going Green

A greener festival

Our commitment
We are committed to reducing our environmental impact, increasing our sustainability and creating a forum for discussion to bring environmental concerns and the climate change debate to a wider public. As chair and key member of the Festivals Edinburgh Environmental Group, we have worked to create a joint Environmental Policy across all of Edinburgh's Festivals.

“Edinburgh's Festivals are the largest celebration of arts and culture in the world. We're about innovation, celebration and engagement with the things around us that make us think, feel and grow. Our environment sustains us, and we need to sustain our environment. This is why we are constantly together striving to understand our responsibility and do what we can to minimise our impact and raise awareness of the environmental issues facing us all.”
