EDGE Network

Twelve areas of festival production were assessed during the first stage of EDGE Network.  This assessment, carried out by the independent and not-for-profit organization  A Greener Future (AGF), analysed each of the festivals’ actions towards sustainability by conducting thorough onsite and offsite assessments on a number of variables. Based on the assessments carried out, AGF certified two of the festivals of the Network: #Tremor and #Keroxen. These assessments not only allowed for the calculation of each of the festivals’ carbon footprints, but also for the unprecedented collection of data on three small festivals from Mediterranean and Atlantic islands. By doing so, EDGE Network was able to put together a ‘List of Guidelines that Festivals on Islands can adopt to improve their sustainability journey’, now available on our website! We highlight 10 of the many measures included in this guide! Read more and download the guide at edgenetwork.com.  #edgenetwork #tremor #fengaros #keroxen

This month, #KEROXEN festival received a certification from the A Greener Future (AGF) institution, an international non-profit entity that assesses the environmental impact of events around the world. After being present at the 2023 edition, the entity highlights the festival's effort to minimise its environmental footprint, as well as its role in promoting more sustainable behaviours and preventing negative environmental impact. It is the second festival in the EDGE Network gain AGF certification, which makes us proud and gives us the ambition to do more and better!
