Festivities and Celebrations


Your waste is the missing piece!

Come to the Party and recycle your waste!

With the idea that "Your waste is the missing piece" we developed, together with our municipalities, an Awareness and Communication Campaign because we believe that putting all the pieces of this game (the materials) in the correct bins will give Game Over to the waste of recyclable materials.

Therefore, during the festivities and pilgrimages, you'll see recycling equipment around the grounds and a properly identified Awareness Team giving information about the correct separation to shopkeepers.

But sellers aren't the only producers of waste... our team accompanies the festivities, contacting citizens, clarifying any doubts and motivating them to take part in this cause.



When it's time to make the most of the party, we believe that each citizen is able to make a difference by bringing their materials to the correct bin, not only to have a positive impact on the environment but also to support a social cause of their municipality.

Have fun and help at the same time by delivering your materials.

With the selective collection service at Municipal Public Events we aim to create recycling habits for multimaterial recovery (plastic and metal, paper and cardboard and glass) in niches characterised by a high potential for waste production.


Since 2017, we have recovered 130 tonnes of recyclable waste resulting from the selective collection in festivities and pilgrimages, allowing us to support, with equipment and goods, various social associations and institutions of each municipality.

We are therefore investing in a collection service for municipal public events such as festivals and pilgrimages, themed fairs and others, as well as academic, cultural and sporting events, since these are events that attract a large part of the population.

We have developed this project aimed at citizens, through face-to-face awareness-raising activities at events, encouraging them to deliver their waste correctly at the recycling points. And, on the other hand, it's aimed at sellers, in the run-up to the festivities, in order to motivate them and raise their awareness about the correct delivery of the waste they produce to the collection equipment that is available or to the municipality's collection teams.
At the same time, we collect and distribute the benefit to a social cause. Depending on the amount of recyclable waste collected, we allocate a benefit to Social Causes that support the community in each municipality, promoting practices aligned with the principles of the Circular Economy and Social Responsibility.
