As part of Openair Gampels' sustainability strategy, we ensure that waste is separated cleanly and that as many materials as possible are collected.

We are looking for 150 volunteers who would like to join our Zero Waste Team. For just 12 hours of work, you will receive a festival ticket and of course the opportunity to be part of a motivated and fun team.

Take care of yourself

Openair Gampel is an integral part of cultural life in Valais and Switzerland. This sustainability charter particularly concerns the environment of the beautiful Valais nature, which we want to take care of. At the same time, we promote social cohesion among our exuberant and peaceful party guests, as well as social cohesion with all the partners who make Gampel possible. Furthermore, we want to do business sustainably and fairly in order to be an important partner for society.

Working together

We seek dialog with all key stakeholders in order to gather ideas and focus on what is important. We listen! Together with other organizations, we want to define and implement sustainability.

Do the right thing!

What we do should have a solid foundation. Our professional sustainability concept is meaningful. We focus on what we can positively influence with our partners.

Say what we do

We want to talk about what we do. Sustainability must be measurable and tangible. A high level of transparency in communication is an important aspect.

Our vision

We have drawn up three visions to guide us over the next few years:

Zero
Waste

We do not produce any waste, neither on nor off the stage. Everyone is responsible for their own waste.
With volunteers on site, we ensure that the site is clean so that little waste is produced and what is left behind is recycled as far as possible.

Our motto is:
→ No waste!

Everybody
is a VIP

Every guest is equally important to us, regardless of their physical or mental fitness or social status - everyone is welcome here! We want to strengthen social cohesion.

Our motto is:
→ Everyone is a VIP!

Not bigger,
but greater

We learn from experience and create enough space for every guest: more air and more room to party! Quality is more important than quantity.

Our motto is:
→ Not bigger, but greater!
