Rhythm N’ Blooms has a long history of environmental initiatives. We are continuing to build our reputation as Knoxville’s greenest festival. We believe that in celebrating music and art, we can also do our part in celebrating the earth. This year we will be introducing new sustainability initiatives in order to reduce our environmental impacts as a festival as well as educate and inspire festival goers to go green as well. Below you will see some of the steps we are taking to RnBGreen!
Recycle!
We are teaming up with Fox & Fogarty,the City of Knoxville recycling program and Keep Knoxville Beautiful to introduce an even larger recycling service to this year’s festival! Recycling will be available along Jackson Avenue and throughout the outside venues (select indoor venues may also offer recycling independently). If you are not sure about what can be recycled, keep an eye out for one of our Green Team volunteers!
Reuse!
Buy and reuse RnB reusable pint glass and get a discount on refills! Not only do you get an awesome souvenir but you’ll be helping in reusing the amount of waste the festival creates!
Get Caught Green Handed!
Snap some instagram photos of your recycling efforts at Rhythm N’ Blooms and earn awesome RnB prizes for keeping Knoxville green! Each day during the festival we will be rewarding the most creative recycling photos by giving away, shirts, stickers and other great festival merchandise. We will also pick one winner each day for a VIP upgrade! So start snapping and include #RnBGreen in all your Instagram Posts!
