What’s Going On at the Festival
Exhibits and vendors, fascinating demonstrations, short talks on resilience topics, solar ovens, electric vehicles -- along with local food and music -- and plenty of activities for all ages. Here’s an overview of some of the special activities that you’ll find and what some of the exhibitors and vendors will deal with. And keep an eye out for updates on this year’s Festival - there’s still time. 

Exhibitors & Vendors
At this point, there are over 50 exhibitors committed to being at the Festival. Click here for a list of the great variety that you can plan on experiencing.
 
Exhibitors will feature a wide range of sustainable practices, dealing with everything from home and community gardening to water conservation, from reducing energy use for home and businesses to key local and regional environmental issues, from dealing with heat emergencies to recycling of various materials, from solar for the home to models of sustainable communities, from localizing our economy to living in harmony with urban wildlife, and much, much more.

Demonstrators
Throughout the Festival, you’ll find exciting demonstrations of hands-on skills that you may want to put into action in your own home or neighborhood or through resources in our community.

Activities for All Ages
The Festival is definitely an event for families and for kids, with hands-on activities at many exhibitors. Have fun as you test your knowledge, try your hand at new skills, and get involved first-hand with sustainability.  There’ll also be plenty of opportunities to express your sustainable creativity.
Food, Music
Delicious local food and drink will be available for purchase, and local musicians will share their unique sounds throughout the day.
 

Moving Toward Zero Waste
There will be recycling bins available, and compost bins for any food waste, to minimize the impact of the Festival on the environment. And please! Bring your re-usable water mug! You can refill with water from the drinking fountains in the Park.

Coming to the Festival
What’s more sustainable than biking to the Festival? There’ll be plenty of bike parking on site. And of course, there is plenty of free on-street parking. Or come by bus -- or even on the streetcar. Armory Park is just a short walk from the streetcar stop, and we’ve confirmed that you can park at University of Arizona and hop on the streetcar there. Surface parking lots and most garages are free and open to the public on Saturdays. (The exception is the 2nd St. Garage, which is a pay lot even on weekends.) A good option is parking in the Tyndall Ave. Garage and then getting on the streetcar at Main Gate.
