Europe-wide launch of the ETC Theatre Green Book at Festival d'Avignon

July 2024

“The important thing is that we have to do this together.”

We are thrilled to have launched the ETC Theatre Green Book during the European Theatre Talks at Festival d'Avignon- watch the video below to share the excitement!

A collaboration between the European Theatre Convention (ETC) and the high-profile Theatre Green Book, the ETC Theatre Green Book is a stress-tested, European-ready version of the sustainable theatre tool to guide theatres step-by-step towards climate neutrality by 2030.

It includes the first-ever cross-Europe certification process to measure sustainable progress across productions, buildings and operations at European theatres.

Georg Häusler, Director for Culture, Creativity and Sport at the European Commission, applauded the initiative and said: “We hope this voluntary tool inspires others in the cultural and creative sectors to make essential progress on sustainability too.”
