EcoFest 101 Host Webinar

» EcoFest 101 Host Webinar

EcoFest is the one month in the year where we invite our communities in to celebrate our unique environment with us in a big way and to share in our vision for a greener tomorrow!

If you’d like to be part of EcoFest 2024, consider hosting your own EcoFest event. If you already have a sustainability-focused event planned for this year, why not align your dates with EcoFest (15 March – 14 April) and take advantage of the free publicity and assistance offered by us during this month-long festival?

We'll go over what EcoFest is all about, what it means to host an EcoFest event, what we can offer with regards to assistance, and how you can prepare, promote and deliver an amazing event with us this year!
