BAY DREAMS 2020
SUSTAINABLE WASTE MANAGEMENT
Bay Dreams is one of New Zealand’s most popular Summer music festivals, with over 50,000 music lovers attending two events.
Closed Loop Site Services is the Sustainability Partner for Bay Dreams, managing the waste across events in Mount Maunganui (North Island) and Nelson (South Island). The goal for the events in January 2020 was to increase landfill diversion to over 60%.
Across the 2 events, 74.5% of all waste materials were recycled, totalling 383.37 cubic meters of resources diverted from landfill.
