Presented by
Santa Teresa is an arts, comedy and music festival built on a human scale, which gives us the ideal context to adopt a measurable eco-responsible approach and encourage our partners to follow suit with us.
Since 2019, the festival has decided to make a major shift to lead this inevitable change and inspire event organizers to follow in its footsteps.
OUR AREAS OF FOCUS
RECYCLE AND COMPOST RIGHTWaste sorting stations, cigarette butt collection points and a green squad are deployed throughout the festival site to ensure eco-responsible management of recyclable and compostable materials.
DRINK RESPONSIBLYWhen it comes to H2O, we look to avoid waste as much as possible. You won't find bottled water here, but instead Ecocup glasses that you can fill (just like your bottle) at our free filling stations.
BUY LOCAL AND BUY LESSWhen it comes to festival supplies, we give priority to renting over buying whenever possible. If we have to buy, we favour locally-sourced and recycled products, as well as eco-responsible suppliers.
RIDING TOGETHER IS BETTER, AND MORE FUNIt's easy to get to the Festival, even if you dont have a car. Get to Montmonrency Station and hop on the 709 bus (direction St-Jerome). Get off at CEGEP Lionel-Groulx, the festival will be right there in front of you!
WORKING TOGETHER TO INSPIRE CHANGEWe aspire to play a leading role in event eco-responsibility by encouraging our partners, decision-makers, employees and other festivals to take similar steps to maximise our impact.
ALWAYS GREENERFrom a future solar-powered stage to clean-fuel generators, we're always looking for new solutions to maximise the movement's reach. We're not there yet, but we're working on it!
