Making events more sustainable in Queenstown Lakes

From festivals to sports tournaments, events are a big part of life in Queenstown Lakes, but they can also have a big impact on our environment. That’s why QLDC, with help from a range of local partner organisations, have developed a Sustainable Events Toolkit, designed to help event organisers reduce waste, cut emissions, and make their events more eco-friendly.

The toolkit provides practical tips and resources on everything from waste minimisation to sustainable transport options, making it easier to host events that are both successful and environmentally responsible. Whether you're planning a small community gathering or a large-scale festival, this guide is a step toward a greener, low-carbon future for our district.
