SZIN wants to raise its profile as an environmentally- friendly event even higher this year: vendors will be allowed to use only biodegradable cups and plates, incentives will be offered for festival-goers arriving in full cars, free bicycle storage will be offered and a rickshaw taxi service will bring people into the city. It is hoped that Greener Festival, a not-for-profit company committed to help music and arts events and festivals around the world adopt environmentally efficient practices, will take note and make SZIN the first recipient of the Greener Festival Award - presented for the first time this year - in the region.
