For Our Planet

What is For Our Planet?

The everyday decisions we make have an impact on our planet and ecosystems, whether it’s driving a car, using a plastic water bottle or simply throwing away trash– it all adds up in the global carbon calculator.

In 2022, Coachella will build off its environmental initiatives and launch new ones to account for our emissions, save water and divert waste. We know there’s still a lot to do and we remain committed to a future where unsustainable consumption becomes a thing of the past.

We can’t do it alone, join us on our journey towards a more sustainable Coachella.

Your Part

• Minimal footprint: carpool, camp, ride a shuttle and bring a reusable bottle

• Please follow the signage on our recycling and compost bins to properly dispose of waste

• Leave no trace!

• Be creative and reuse the clothes you already have in your closet.

Water

Conscious Irrigation

• Part of the festival experience is laying on the grass. When we irrigate the polo field grass to keep it nice and green for you, we use non-potable water.

• To reduce the amount of water for irrigation, we are replacing areas of turf around the site with alternative landscapes.
