NOTE: Most footprints are not level. 

TENT WEIGHTS

If you bring your own tent or build, you must bring sufficient weights. Wanderlust will not provide tent weights.

Using a 10×10 pop-up tent for example, we recommend at least 35 lbs per leg. Please ask if you are unsure about how much weight is appropriate for your structure.

GREENING GUIDELINES

Failure to comply with greening guidelines may result in being asked to discontinue serving.

Partner Initiatives

  • Using compostable products is mandatory at all Wanderlust Events. In order to comply with these greening initiatives, styrofoam and plastic food service ware is not permitted. Approved items include paper cups and plates that are compostable, and other items found here. We appreciate your support in our recycling and composting program!  If you run out on site, no worries! Ask your onsite contact for some reserve products.
  • Please break down your cardboard AND separate your recyclables from your trash at your booth. If you need any bags, ask your Account Manager or green team member. Clear or blue bags are for recycling, green bags are for compost only, and black bags are for trash. Let us know if you have any needs requiring extra bins or service.  Be sure to remove any tape or plastic wrapping on the cardboard before recycling.
  • Do not use park waste receptacles as they are not managed by the event staff.  Use only Wanderlust provided three-stream receptacles. If your booth requires a receptacle, please let your Account Manager know prior to the event.
  • Please try to only use recyclable materials that are rated as #1 or #2.  #3 recyclable materials are the hardest to process and most likely to be considered trash.  Other recyclable materials include metals, paper, and glass. Styrofoam products are not permitted.
  • Compostable products, including cups and bags, must be clearly marked “Compostable”.  Products labeled “biodegradable” or “degradable” are not accepted into the compost.  
  • Responsible packing and shipment practices must be followed.  Do not have one item per box and do not have items wrapped in plastic as this creates more waste than necessary.
  • PLEASE DO NOT leave anything behind. This includes weights for your tents, such as cinder blocks, carpets, bags of sand, and other décor.  Be sure to micro-sweep your booth space for any and all trash or food waste left behind, including zip-ties. Let’s leave the space as clean as we found it!  You must have your site cleared by your Account Manager before you depart in order to have your greening deposit refunded.
  • If your product is donatable to a shelter or food donation service, please coordinate with the organization and discuss the plans with your Account Manager.  If you need assistance with finding an organization, please let your Account Manager know.
  • Many parks do not allow glass to be handed out. Pouring from glass into sample cups is often allowed within your footprint.  Ask your Account Manager for site specific details.

Failure to comply with any of these greening guidelines may result in being asked to discontinue serving and/or participation.

SUSTAINABILITY

Please help us Wander Without Waste! As yogis, it is our duty to be good stewards of the Earth, so please conserve! Promotional giveaways made from plastic are not permitted at our festivals. All  promotional materials must be printed on recycled paper, however, we encourage reducing printed materials by providing brand messaging and discount codes on display boards. Lets work together to minimize our waste and build a positive relationship with our environment. Check out this page and see how we’re doing our part to create a greener festival experience.

SIGNAGE & BANNER MATERIALS

Wanderlust encourages our partners to use signage and banners with sustainable materials, such as natural fabrics or reclaimed wood, instead of vinyl or plastic whenever possible.

PHOTO & VIDEO GUIDELINES

Any capture of photos or videos on-site must be approved in advance by Wanderlust. Such approval will not be unreasonably withheld provided that such photo or video capture occurs in close proximity to your activation area. All photographers and videographers must be identified in advance and must wear appropriate photo/video credentials issued by Wanderlust. Wanderlust cannot authorize photo or video capture in any class. Full-resolution copies of any photos or videos captured on-site must be provided to Wanderlust promptly upon request and Wanderlust retains the right to use any photos captured at our events for promotional purposes.

FOOD & BEVERAGE PERMITTING
