Step-by-Step Guide to Planning a Sustainable Event
Planning a sustainable event doesn’t have to be complicated. This eco-friendly event planning checklist provides actionable steps to reduce waste, support local vendors, and engage your attendees in sustainability efforts. From selecting recycled materials to implementing waste reduction strategies, this guide will help you make a positive environmental impact at conferences, corporate gatherings, and other events across Australia.
1 - Initial Planning
Planning a sustainable event starts with clear, eco-friendly goals and choosing venues with green certifications. Setting intentions for waste reduction, carbon offsetting, and support for local, sustainable businesses helps shape every event decision toward a positive environmental impact.
-
Choosing the right venue is a big step towards achieving your sustainability goals. Look for venues that have sustainability practices in place, such as:
energy-efficient lighting
waste reduction programs
eco-friendly certifications
-
It’s important to allocate part of your budget specifically for sustainable options. While some eco-friendly choices might seem more expensive upfront, they often lead to cost savings in other areas and definitely pay off in terms of environmental impact and brand reputation.
-
Outline all aspects of your event, including transportation, catering, materials, and waste management, with sustainability in mind. Break down each area and consider how you can incorporate eco-friendly practices.
-
Communicate your sustainability goals to all stakeholders, including vendors, sponsors, and attendees. Early engagement ensures everyone is on the same page and committed to making the event as green as possible.
-
Decide on the metrics you’ll use to measure the success of your sustainability efforts. This could include the amount of waste diverted from landfills, the reduction in carbon emissions, or the number of local suppliers used.
-
Verify that your vendors use sustainable materials. For instance, caterers can use biodegradable tableware, while decorators can opt for reusable or recyclable decorations.
2 - Choosing Sustainable Vendors for Eco-Friendly Events
Selecting eco-friendly vendors is essential for reducing the environmental impact of your event. Partner with local suppliers and certified sustainable vendors to minimise transportation emissions and ensure ethical practices. Look for vendors with green certifications and strong waste management policies to support your commitment to sustainability.
-
Start by researching and prioritising vendors who have a clear commitment to sustainability. Look for those who use eco-friendly materials, have waste reduction policies, and practice energy efficiency.
-
When contacting potential vendors, ask about their sustainability practices. Questions could include:
What eco-friendly materials do you use?
How do you manage waste?
Do you have any sustainability certifications?
-
-
Consider using local vendors whenever possible. This reduces transportation emissions and supports the local economy. Plus, local vendors are often more willing to collaborate on sustainable practices.
-
Ensure that your vendors have robust waste management policies. This includes recycling, composting, and reducing single-use plastics.
-
Verify that your vendors use sustainable materials. For instance, caterers can use biodegradable tableware, while decorators can opt for reusable or recyclable decorations.
3 - Using Sustainable Materials and Supplies for Events
Choosing sustainable materials is key to hosting a low-impact event. Opt for recycled paper for printed items, biodegradable tableware, and reusable decorations to reduce waste. Sourcing local and organic products not only supports sustainable practices but also minimises transportation emissions, making your event greener.

Opt for materials like bamboo or compostable items to minimise single-use plastics.

Ensure printed materials are sustainable by choosing recycled paper or FSC-certified paper for environmental responsibility.

Sourcing products locally not only reduces transportation emissions but also supports the local economy. Look for organic products to ensure that they are produced without harmful chemicals.

Decorations can be both beautiful and sustainable. Consider using items that are reusable, recyclable, or made from natural materials. Potted plants, fabric banners, and recycled paper decorations are great choices.
4 - Effective Waste Management for Sustainable Events
Implementing strong waste management practices is essential for a sustainable event. Aim for zero-waste by providing recycling stations, using compostable materials, and partnering with a waste management service to divert as much waste as possible from landfills.
