GREEN artist rider

The Green Artist Rider aims to assist artists and encourage stronger collaboration between promoters, productions and venues. Developed in 2019 in partnership with Wasserman (formerly Paradigm / Coda Agency).

THIS INITIATIVE ALIGNS LIVE MUSIC EVENTS AND TOURS WITH THE NEED TO:

  • Source food with low environmental impact and high social benefit

  • Reduce and balance emissions and eliminate waste

  • Reduce single-use plastics

  • Encourage low carbon travel positively influence audiences and fans.

The rider is designed to match the needs of the artists with the movement for venues and promoters to reduce waste and instil ethical purchasing choices in their productions, operations and communications. The work on the Green Artist Rider serves as a bridge between artists, promoters and venues, and a part of the puzzle helping to change old practices into better new ways. Support is available from AGF for artists, promoters and venues seeking to implement requirements from the rider and beyond, if they don’t already do so, or who wish to contribute or develop their own actions to make the live industry greener.
