Since 2001 WOMADelaide has adopted a waste management strategy with assistance from Zero Waste that has meant only biodegradable and recyclable wastes are produced 'front of house' by festival goers. All cups, plates and crockery sold at WOMADelaide are fully biodegradable. Significantly since 2005, composting of biological wastes has been implemented, creating over 15 tonnes of compost, and diverting more than 30 tonnes of waste from landfill.

As ever, we ask you to use carefully the clearly marked bins on site. This year womadelaide will use a three-bin system to include:

• Biodegradable waste
• Recycling
• General waste
