Mananalu Partnership Strengthens BottleRock's Plastic-Free Commitment

BOONE, N.C. and NAPA, Calif., Aug. 31, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- BottleRock is back this year (Sept. 3-5) with an action-packed line-up of music, wine, food, and brews, plus a renewed focus on sustainability. In an effort to become one of the most sustainable events out there, the Festival already has numerous measures in place, which includes bringing Mananalu on-board as the exclusive water sponsor. Packaged in aluminum, an infinitely recyclable material, actor Jason Momoa's water company is furthering BottleRock's commitment to eliminating single-use plastics on-site.

For 2021, BottleRock organizers are planning for an even bigger and better experience than year's past, with over 80 bands playing across five stages, globally recognized wine and craft beer producers, and celebrity and chef performances. The Festival's sustainability measures are similarly impressive, reaching beyond the elimination of single-use plastics to include easy access to composting and recycling, transitioning to clean power, reducing carbon emissions, and organizing food donations.

"BottleRock strives to be one of the most environmentally friendly and sustainable festivals by increasing compost, decreasing landfill waste, eliminating single use plastic and more," stated Jason Scoggins, Partner, BottleRock Napa Valley. "With the addition of Mananalu's brand and canned water packaging to our festival lineup, eliminating single use plastic bottles, we are taking a big step towards our sustainability goals, and are thrilled having them as a partner in this effort."

Mananalu's participation as the exclusive water sponsor not only supports the Festival's plastic-free initiative, but also the focus on easy access to recycling. 

"We think it's great that BottleRock is leading the charge on eliminating single-use plastics at major events," said Mananalu Founder Jason Momoa. "We're stoked to be a part of the movement and proud to share Mananalu's mission—while rocking out—this September in Napa."

In addition to offering its aluminum, resealable water bottles, Mananalu will also send eight brand ambassadors to educate attendees on recycling and collect their aluminum recyclables.  The goal of the activation, which they are deploying in partnership with Ball Corp., is to make recycling a social engagement for the attendees that simultaneously increases the environmental and social purpose of the event.
