I light Marina bay 2012

Festival Sustainability

A key objective of i Light Marina Bay 2012 is to advocate environmentally-responsible behaviour for a sustainable future, and promote the Bay as a culturally vibrant and sustainable urban waterfront precinct.

From encouraging artists to use recyclable materials as well as adopt energy-efficient lighting technology and renewable energy sources in the creation of their light art installations, to working with event and programme partners to manage resources and minimise waste, sustainability is promoted through all aspects of the festival.
