Sustainability

The Cavendish Beach Music Festival is committed to high standards of environmental sustainability. Our island is known for pristine natural wonders, green wide-open spaces, fresh air, swimmable beaches, and stunning scenery. We intend to keep it that way!

Reducing our impact with eco-friendly practices has been a focus of the festival since it was first established in 2009. We take pride in our full on-site recycling program, public transit services, onsite bike rack, and carpool system. We also have onsite water refill stations, to keep concert-goers hydrated while reducing plastic waste. Each year we recommit to environmental sustainability through new and innovative green initiatives.

Our festival grounds neighbour the Prince Edward Island National Park, filled with sand dunes, barrier islands, sandspits, beaches, sandstone cliffs, wetlands, forests, and wildlife – forever reminding us what’s at stake.

Land stewardship is a community effort, so we ask for your help in preserving our environment and respecting the land upon which we hold the festival.
