Over four days of the Folklore Festival Východná, more than 25,000 visitors shall visit an amphitheatre in the village below the Tatras. Each of then will produce about half a kilogram of waste. That is more than 14 tons of non-separable waste that is to end up in the dump site. The greater part of it can be reused. Up to 40 percent of waste from similar events is the so-called BRKO - biodegradable kitchen waste from the gastro zone.

Therefore, we have decided to launch the Green Východná project this year. Our goal is to achieve a status of the zero waste festival in the future and to separate the vast majority of waste produced during the festival.

The Green Východná project will be launched by separating PET bottles and waste from the gastro zone (used oil and food leftovers).

We will inform you about the results of our project after the festival.

The partner of the Green Východná project is BRANTNER Poprad.
