Clean Up.
It not just a phrase – it’s the code. Donington Park is the home of rock & alternative, and we’re the custodians. Festivals should be about the roar of the crowd and the weight of the riff, not a graveyard of abandoned gazebos and plastic waste. We’re calling on the tribe to embrace a culture of respect for the pit, the park, and the planet.
At the heart of the movement is the Download Green Team. This isn’t the fun-police; they’re a team of die-hard fans and volunteers dedicated to keeping the site legendary. You’ll see them across the campsites promoting greener living and helping you ensure that the only thing you leave behind is the ringing in your ears.
We know the “Download Blues” are real on Monday morning, but true legends don’t leave their gear behind.
Be part of the legacy: Show Up. Tear Up. Clean Up.
“It was such an enjoyable experience. The balance between sustainability and enjoying ourselves was more than satisfying!”
