Culture as a Driver for Social & Environmental Sustainability

Acknowledging the climate and societal challenges we face, we continuously work to minimize our environmental footprint:

At Swinging Europe, we believe that music can be a powerful driver of positive change—this includes our approach to environmental and social responsibility. We strive to create a world where art and music serve as catalysts for both social and environmental sustainability. Acknowledging the climate and societal challenges we face, we continuously work to minimize our environmental footprint.
 

We view our tours as opportunities to promote social change, diversity, and community building through sustainable touring. Our focus is on the shared responsibility of culture in the green transition. Therefore, we are deeply committed to implementing green transportation methods, eco-friendly accommodations, and sustainable catering.

Our approach to sustainable touring is based on two key concepts: Slow Touring and Deep Touring. These focus on creating meaningful, long-term connections with audiences and local communities while minimizing our environmental impact. Through these formats, we develop in-depth cultural experiences that strengthen communities and forge lasting connections across societies and borders.

Environmental Sustainability
  • Green Transportation: We set ambitious goals to reduce our CO₂ emissions by prioritizing electric vehicles, trains, and low-emission buses as our primary means of touring transportation.

 

  • Sustainable Accommodation and Catering: We prioritize eco-friendly lodging and venues, as well as organic and locally sourced meals, to support a more sustainable cultural production.

 

  • Slow Touring og Deep Touring:
    Through slow touring, we create an environment that allows us to engage more deeply with audiences, promote well-being, and reduce our environmental impact. With deep touring, we strive to establish long-lasting, meaningful connections with the local communities we visit and reduce the need for frequent travel.
