Tap water at clubs and festivals: overcoming challenges, presented by Dopper

Speakers: Camille Guitteau (Bye Bye Plastic), Eefje Aarts (Dekmantel), Esther Koshari (Paradise City)

Moderator: Greg Cochrane

What challenges do organisers face in offering tap water at nightclubs and festivals? During this panel talk, we explore how leading festivals and clubs have successfully tackled concerns about safety, revenue, and partnerships.

About this program

Providing tap water at clubs and festivals can significantly reduce plastic waste and cut down an event’s overall environmental footprint. In this panel, experts Esther Koshari (Paradise City Festival), Eefje Aarts (Dekmantel Festival), and Camille Guitteau (Bye Bye Plastic Foundation) will share their insights on:

– How can festivals implement 'Bring Your Own Reusable Bottle' policies?
– Is tap water a viable business model for festivals?
– How can audiences be engaged in sustainability campaigns?
