Greening Festivals
Greening of Victoria Park Festivals
This year the three big festivals - Sunfest, Home County Folk Festival and RibFest will serve anywhere from 150,000 to 200,000 people over the 3-5 day period at each of their festivals.
With this many people and lots of good food there is necessarily lots of garbage generated. This year all three festivals are making efforts to minimize the amount of waste that gets carted off to landfill and they need the help of every attendee.
