Sustainable event practice

What does this mean at my event?

Sustainable Event Practice in very simple terms means you minimise or eliminate any adverse or harmful effects on people or the environment, which may result due to the actions and activities, planned for the event.

Council is committed to being sustainable and this includes the events hosted within the municipality. Council will try to provide resources and support to assist you organise a successful event with consideration to the event’s sustainability both environmental and social.

You can view the Council’s Event Sustainability Checklist (DOC 55Kb) to assist your planning. Remember, you do not have to do everything on the checklist; it is there to act as a guide to help you on the path.
