Primavera Sound 2024 is committed to sustainability and community values, surpassing the incredible lineup. The festival is well known for its eco-conscious initiatives and continues to lead by example. The vehicles on-site will use electricity as their power source, and one of the stages will run entirely on renewable energy. The festival has banned single-use plastics and extensively uses solar panels to reduce its environmental footprint. This year will feature expanded recycling stations and water refill points to encourage attendees to join the sustainability efforts. The emphasis on eco-friendly practices makes Primavera Sound a leader in environmental responsibility and enhances the overall experience for festival-goers. Notably, it is the only festival globally co-signed by the United Nations for its sustainability efforts, making it a green beacon in the world of music festivals.
