SE EARTH is a new, stand alone division within Sunset Event’s corporate structure dedicated to the ongoing development and delivery of best practice environmental principles and innovation in sustainable event management.
With two prestigious International Greener Festival Awards under its belt, Sunset Events is already a global leader in sustainable event management and continues to lead the way with the introduction of SE EARTH.
SE EARTH’s focus will be to reduce the environmental impact that our core business has on the planet, its main target areas being:
›Waste management ›Reducing & offsetting C02 emissions ›Promotion of environmental issues
Always conscious of the negative environmental impact components its large scale events could have on the environment, SE developed a variety of initiatives to set about making its festivals dedicated eco-minded events.
EcoBound is the green moniker for the environmentally friendly practices embedded into the management and delivery of the iconic Southbound (SB) – a 2 day Music, Art and Camping Festival held in the southern regional centre of Busselton and attended by over 20,000 people.
Green Roots is the equivalent program for West Coast Blues n Roots Festival (WCBR) – an annual festival attracting up to 15,000 a day held in the port city of Fremantle.
To educate patrons in innovative ways about environmental awareness, both these programs implement simple but effective green initiatives including:
- Carbon Conscious & Carbon Neutral
- A Tree-per-Ticket policy
- $3 Optional Green Fee

SE EARTH is keen to explore the potential for innovative partnerships and creative business initiatives that support sustainable eco-friendly outcomes. SE EARTH will build on this existing foundation whilst exploring and developing new initiatives to ensure SE and its partners remain at the forefront of innovative best practice and innovation in sustainable event delivery.
SE EARTH will have its own dedicated web pages dedicated to promoting the full scope of its environmental programs and will allow local, national and international partners to showcase their environmental wares and services for the entire world to see.
