Musical events – In search of more eco-friendly transportation solutions

After more than 2 years of “break” for the event industry due to the global health crisis, the world of entertainment and festivals is back in the spotlight. Having learned to find new solutions such as “remoteness” to perform, artists now wish to get back to their public, but not without some changes. For about ten years now, we have seen the emergence of a desire to turn towards eco-responsibility, both in an isolated and more massive way. Indeed, many studies have shown that the most important part of pollution during a festival, a concert, or a tour, was attributed to transportation. That’s why artists and organizers are now trying to implement more eco-responsible transport solutions.

Find out who they are and what they do. A clue, they are not always the ones you would have thought…
