Green Culture Festival at Pact Zollverein in Essen

Pact Zollverein in Essen is one of the first cultural centers in North Rhine-Westphalia to be certified according to the European environmental management system EMAS.

This is where this year's cultural festival will take place from June 12-13. Under the theme "Handprint - Who do we want to have been?" the event aims to foster collaboration and alliances between culture, business, science and civil society to shape a desirable future. At stake is the operational ecology of culture, as well as healthy growth and fair prosperity. With the EMAS certi!cation, Pact Zollverein is committed to a holistic and transparent environmental management system. An environmental manual regulates, for example, the handling of business travel, heating and stage lighting.
