BIG NEWS! Busfest is going green! ♻

At Busfest we are committed to promoting sustainability and environmental responsibility at our festival. In partnership with The Three Counties Showground management and in accordance with the Waste Recycling Act 2003 and the Environmental Protection act 1990, we are working to reduce our eco footprint and the level of waste produced at our event.

We're sure you've all seen the photos from the aftermath of major events such as Glastonbury festival and were appalled by the level of waste left behind - 2000 tonnes that took 3 weeks to sort! Though they have many things in place to deal with this level of waste, the fact that it exists in the first place is simply not acceptable.

Going forward there will be a site wide ban on non-recyclable & single use plastics. This includes single use plastic bottles, non-recyclable plastics, & polystyrene containers 🚫

What does this mean for you?

Well, for starters our traders & bars will be using reusable or recyclable items such as reusable cups or recyclable cutlery 🍴

Campers will be given 2 bin bags in the welcome packs on arrival - one for any recyclable waste, and the other for non-recyclables. You MUST take home the bag of non-recyclable waste. If you can take home both that would be ideal, but if not feel free to empty the recyclable bag into the bins provided.

To be an environmental superstar ✨ we ask that you empty the bags of recyclables into the bins instead of putting the entire bag in. This means you can take the bag back to camp and (you guessed it) reuse it!😃 It also massively helps our our Waste Management Team as these bags must be emptied and sorted BY HAND as they get tangled up in the sorting machine

We do apologise for any inconvenience this may cause but we hope that you can all understand the need for change 💚

Can't wait! - I'm taking my mum this year and she's asked about hot showers, something i'd normally not be that bothered about but thought i'd ask on here. Has anyone used them? What are they like?

Thank you.
Absent!
 
I'll get the T6FORUM fancy dress theme sorted shortly...... Just waiting for a heads up from BF on what's the plan.
 
Tickets bought and paid for, (RSVPeed), we shall be in Club camping again!
Have I heard correctly that the 'theme' could well be the 'Madhatters Tea party'? Or is my better half making things up?!
Really looking forward to this, and the extra space it allows us (over Camperjams Shanty Town feel!)

Yay! Discount on entry tickets to reflect the costs they’ve saved, right?!!
 
But it's OK for hundreds of guests to drive their diesel vans there from all over the country...
Not me, I've got a "front assist not working" light up on the dash here in France so by then I'll probably have to push it there.
On a plus note only one site left and not used an EHU once in 3 1/2 weeks... stuff ICE I want a T6 with Id Buzz gubbins.:thumbsup:

I don't think they have an "official theme", this is from their website...
