The Splendour of Algae

Heading to Splendour in the Grass this year? Explore a more sustainable future…with algae and the Deep Green Biotech Hub.

Alongside this year’s stellar line-up, Australia’s premier outdoor music festival, Splendour in the Grass (SITG), will get a sustainability boost thanks to a microscopic plant and a passionate group of young researchers affectionately dubbed “the algae crew”.  

Instead of grooving to the music beats, The Algae crew will be welcoming festival goers to the Deep Green Forest tent courtesy of the Deep Green Biotech Hub (DGBH), where they can soak up an oxygen rich environment whilst exploring personal hopes for a sustainable future.
