Live Nation Reports 90% Waste Reduction On Select Dave Matthews Band Summer Tour Stops
The company reports that over 90% of waste from fans on was reused, composted, recycled or donated following DMB shows at Live Nation venues.
The band’s summer tour, which wrapped in early September at The Gorge Amphitheatre in Quincy, Wash., unrolled the group’s “On the Road To Zero Waste” initiative, done in partnership with Live Nation. These numbers mark a win for the Dave Matthews Band and Live Nation, as both outlined a goal of diverting at least 90% of fan-generated waste from landfills when the tour was announced this past January. In September, the ever-eco-conscious Billie Eilish announced she was collaborting with Google Maps to direct fans to sustainable food and transportation options on her current Hit Me Hard and Soft tour.
