BLR Airport & Echoes of Earth Renew Sustainability Partnership
BLR Airport and a music festival called Echoes of Earth are working together for the sixth year in a row.
They want to show people how to be kinder to the environment using music and art.
This year, the festival is about our 'sixth sense' which means being more aware of nature.
There will be music at the airport for travelers to enjoy.
A special project will use plant sounds to make music.
The festival will also use solar power for one of its stages and turn old electronic trash into cool art.
They are also teaching kids about staying green.
This shows how important it is for places like airports and festivals to take care of our planet.
BLR Airport and Echoes of Earth have renewed their partnership for the festival's 8th edition.
The partnership emphasizes sustainability, integrating art, music, and community engagement to promote environmental awareness.
Events include live performances at the airport, a digital soundscape project using plant frequencies, and art installations made from recycled e-waste.
Key festival elements like the Big Tree Stage will be fully solar-powered, and the 080 Lounge will offer a sustainable culinary experience.
Educational initiatives via the Kempegowda International Airport Foundation (KIAF) and Echoes of Earth will focus on sustainability, conservation, and skill development for young minds.
