The anticipation as the lights drop. The roar of the crowd. The beat of the music. The feeling that you just had to be there – and you were.

Whether it’s the band that you never thought you’d get to see, the music festival that you build your calendar around or the comedian who you’ll quote forever, nothing beats the feeling of seeing it live.

And it’s not just crowd surfing and crowd singing, there’s the corporate side of live events too. The summits. The launches. The awards. All a chance to connect, share ideas and feel part of something bigger.

So, live events matter. But our planet matters too - and there’s no denying that the travel, power and resources involved in staging unforgettable experiences have an impact on it. Is there a way to enjoy one, without sacrificing the other?

That’s what we’re exploring with Sam Booth, Director of Sustainability at AEG Europe, and Ed Shedd, European Climate & Sustainability Partner at Deloitte in this episode of The Green Room.

Tune in to find out:

  • The role our favourite artists and venues have to play in saving our planet
  • How the world’s first carbon-removed arena events went down with fans
  • Why live events have the power to change our attitudes and behaviour
  • The one thing we can all do this summer to help make music festivals more sustainable
