Tuborg Sounds on Announces the Sitka & Element Goodzone

Tuborg Sounds on Announces the Sitka & Element Goodzone

Tuborg Sounds On returns on Saturday 23 March, on Auckland’s North Shore with a raft of Aotearoa’s favourite acts and a strong commitment to environmental and social awareness.

The line-up features: The Black Seeds, David Dallas, Home Brew, Katchafire, TrinityRoots, AHoriBuzz, Tahuna Breaks, Tiki Taane, Five Mile Town, Dan Aux & Tali, DJ Sir-Vere ft. Che Fu, PNC & K One, Eavesdrop and Kong Fooey.

The Non Government Organisations (NGOs) joining this amazing line-up in the Sitka & Element GOODZONE include: Sustainable Coastlines, Conscious Consumers, The Global Poverty Project, SurfAid International, Sea Shepherd, S.A.F.E. and Forest & Bird.

Designed to promote change at Tuborg Sounds On, The Sitka & Element GOODZONE looks to engage music fans in a fun and informative way - and to inspire change in the way Kiwis think, act and live. The Goodzone aims to combine “Fun, Vision and Change”!

A destination at the festival, The Sitka and Element GOODZONE will feature seven high profile NGOs alongside food vendors, giant games and amusement rides creating a place for festival-goers to learn, be entertained, eat and drink.
Participating NGOs represent a broad range of topics including coastal, marine and forest conservation, humanitarian efforts, sustainable business and animal protection advocacy.

Tuborg Sounds On is also active in promoting sustainability via a partnership with Auckland Transport. Festival-goers can catch event buses and trains within Auckland at no extra cost. They just have to show their Tuborg Sounds On ticket to travel for free. This will dramatically reduce emissions and congestion; while providing punters with a fuss-free and safe way to travel to the event.

The festival’s original charity partner, Sustainable Coastlines, will be carrying out work, which will ensure that not only is Tuborg Sounds On a great sustainable event, but that it contributes towards making a difference. The organisation will be running a pre-concert beach clean-up of Takapuna and Milford beaches on the morning of the festival (March 23rd).

TUBORG SOUNDS ON:
Saturday 23rd March – The Oval, North Harbour Stadium
Gates open Midday. Live acts from 1pm - 11pm.
