Leaving No Trace Waste Management

An amazing achievement was made in this area. Events in Malta are reknowned for rubbish strewn dancefloors and massive amounts of site rubbish post event.

  • Clear on site signage
  • Easy to use system
  • Compostable Disposables
  • Empowering participants to be responsible to co create a cleaner festival

The waste system was as follows:

5 stations of bins, categories comprising of Plastic and Glass Recycling,  Metal Cans, Compost, Landfill

A back area for emptying into larger skips to reduce transportation and resources

A scheduled rosta of bin checks and site sweeps

A team of Susty Crew volunteers to manage the system
