Waste

Reduce festival waste

Wirrina is a low-waste festival

Why? Waste generated at music festivals has an environmental impact. It’s unsightly, it can pose health risks, and it costs to clean it up afterwards. Please spare a thought for our volunteers, our hosts at the Wirrina Cove Holiday Park and for the environment. Help us to keep our festival low on waste, and a pleasant environment for all patrons.

Here are some things you can do to help keep Wirrina a low-waste festival

  • Pack a reusable water bottle. (Yes, there are taps to refill)
  • Bring your own reusable camping plates, cups and cutlery
  • Bring a coffee ‘keep cup’
  • Minimise the packaging you bring with you, to minimise the waste you leave
  • Pack food into reusable containers
  • Put any rubbish in one of the bins at the venue
  • If you smoke, make sure the butts go into the right bin (No smoking inside marquees or the bar.)
  • If you’re bringing alcohol with you, please take the bottles/cans home with you and recycle them
  • Keep your camp site clean— dispose of any waste as you go
  • When you pack-up, take it all home with you. Do a final clean up putting rubbish in the correct bins provided
  • If you’re bringing your dog, please clean up after her/him.
