Green Stages: How Festival Stages Can Become Sustainable

Future of Festivals - Der Podcast vor 6 Monaten

0:00

Festivals are creative spaces, but stage construction consumes
enormous resources. With growing pressure to act sustainably, new
approaches are needed. Materials like bamboo have already been
used at festivals such as Mysteryland, but long-term strategies
for reuse and energy efficiency are still rare. Can photovoltaic
stage roofs supply power in the future? How can modular systems
be designed to make both environmental and economic sense? What
influence can architects like Michael Kelm from kpm3 have on more
sustainable planning?

This panel discusses how circular thinking, smart materials and
renewable energy can shape the future of event infrastructure.
Architect Michael Kelm shares how sustainability can be built in
from the start, not only in stages but also in expos and brand
environments. Alex Prideaux from Special Structures brings
insights into scalable structural innovations. Bob van de Pol
from Masters of Bamboo adds practical experiences with bamboo
construction in the festival context.
