Reducing your impact
Selecting a venue and suppliers who prioritise sustainability is a powerful way to reduce your event’s environmental impact. From locally sourced produce to waste-free event styling, working with eco-conscious partners ensures every detail aligns with your sustainability objectives.
Green venues like Te Pae Christchurch take proactive steps such as reducing emissions, conserving water and energy, minimising waste and prioritise local sourcing to minimise carbon footprint and supporting the community.
We believe successful events don’t have to come at the expense of the environment. That’s why we’ve developed our SustainAble Events Toolkit — a practical resource to support organisers in delivering memorable experiences that are also environmentally responsible.
Whether you're hosting a conference, gala dinner or exhibition, this toolkit helps you make informed, sustainable choices from the very start.
