Overview
- The festival in Benicàssim has launched a GTECH hybrid energy system that organizers say will save about 3,000 liters of fuel and avoid roughly 7.7 tonnes of CO2 over the event week.
- Rototom and Tuawa released five‑year results claiming the partnership has avoided 3.2 million single‑use plastic bottles through refill systems and behavior change.
- Organizers installed 54 drinking fountains across the site and campsite to reduce bottled water sales and support the festival’s long‑running plastic‑free policy.
- The Foro Social, run by Fundación Exodus, is running panels on housing, climate justice and human rights with high‑profile online contributions from Vandana Shiva and Francisco Vera.
- To protect visitors from extreme heat the festival changed schedules, reinforced shaded cultural 'refuge' zones with ventilated tensile structures, and emphasized shaded family areas for wellbeing.
