Brighton Pride with Green Goblet.

In an effort to improve its sustainability, Brighton Pride outlines the details of their Green Goblet reusable cup scheme. The limited number of branded cups used do not carry dates which means that the designs can be carried over from year to year, making sure they are used multiple times.

Reusable cups are part of the sustainability pledge that Brighton Pride has put in place as part of a three-year plan to reduce single-use plastic across their event sites. We supplied specific Brighton Pride cup designs alongside our generic festival cups this summer – our generic cups can be washed and reused over and over at different festivals throughout the year so are some of our most used reusables.

Deer Shed is the first festival that Green Goblet has supplied both hot and cold reusable cups for, we think more festivals and stadiums will follow their lead and make the move towards reusable coffee cups.
