Sustainability is a major topic in the festival world, but which actions truly make a difference? Sustafest teamed up with seven leading festivals – including Boomtown, STROOM, and Tomorrowland – to explore real, impactful solutions. This panel will discuss practical examples, challenges, and innovations, tackling key questions like: how can festivals reduce their environmental footprint without compromising the visitor experience? From smarter energy use to circular materials, experts will share insights, bold ideas, and lessons learned from the field.

This panel talk will be moderated by Myriam Buyl (Partnerships & Event Officer, VITO and co-founder Sustafest) and Peter Decuypere (Event expert & Sustafest Project Lead).
