The Environmental Pledge of the Turku Music Festival declares that we aim to act in the most responsible and sustainable way possible in all our operations. We wish to make a contribution to the future of our environment. We are committed to the environmental programmes of Visit Finland and EcoCompass.
Under our Environmental Pledge, we undertake to minimise our waste output by having paperless events wherever possible, by enhancing recycling for both our production team and our audiences, by reusing materials and by providing easily accessible recycling points at our venues. In subcontracting, we undertake to select high-quality products and services with environmental certificates, to use recycled materials and to favour local services. We encourage our partners to do the same.
A ticket to a concert or event of the Turku Music Festival always includes free travel on Föli local buses. The Festival encourages audiences and employees alike to use public transport. Moreover, audience members have the option of buying an Environment Ticket, which includes a contribution to the Finnish Association for Nature Conservation (the contribution percentage varies by concert).
