The festival offers entertainment and fun, as well as practical resources. Here are a few reasons to attend:

Recycle Your Hard-to-Recycle Items

Old sneakers and electronics can be brought to the festival and dropped off for recycling. Shoes may be recycled at the Shoot the Shoes booth near the stage (no shoes with metal parts or cleats). Electronics such as cell phones and computers will be accepted at the electronic recycling station.

Entertainment

The stage will be filled with entertainment throughout the festival, including live bands, karaoke, spoken word performances, and the presentation of the Environmental Leadership Awards.

Booths to Visit

Ninety groups and organizations have registered to have a booth at the Earth Day Festival. Explore the booths to learn about the variety of Earth-friendly activities happening on and around campus.

Drives

Generous donations from the Georgia Tech community have stocked the clothing and office supply swaps. Bring your BuzzCard to partake in both opportunities. 

Freebies

The Earth Day Festival will be sharing free organic popcorn and T-shirts with participants until supplies run out.
