Green Venue Program
Helping Australian music & arts venues improve their environmental impact
Expressions of Interest are open for Green Music Australia’s tailored education program for live music, arts, and cultural venues across NSW, alongside access to discounted Green Venue Certification opportunities supported by the NSW Environment Protection Authority.
The program is designed to help venues strengthen sustainability practices across waste management, energy use and supply chains. Venues that serve food are strongly encouraged to apply, particularly in light of upcoming FOGO regulations coming into effect from July 1st.
The program includes a 2-hour online workshop and a ¾-day in-person session hosted in the City of Sydney / surrounds in mid-October.
Our free Green Venue Guide is a comprehensive overview on how to improve the environmental performance of your live music venue. Through practical strategies, tools and case studies, the guide provides a step by step plan to help improve venue sustainability through backline, energy, waste, food, and procurement practices.

Green Music Australia’s Green Venue Certification program rewards and celebrates Music Venues who demonstrate a commitment towards environmental action and values. By certifying your live music venue, you can promote your environmental credentials, helping you to connect with likeminded artists, industry, and audiences.
Participating venues will be measured against a range of key selection criteria including: Energy, Waste, Water, Food & Drink and Procurement. Once assessed, venues will be provided with a star rating based on their performance. Certified venues will also be able to promote their venue as a certified Green Venue and be published in our Green Venue Directory.
