Setting the Standard — A New Era of Sustainable Festival Merchandise

Over the years, our merchandise collection has evolved from a handful of festival favourites to a curated selection of premium apparel — each piece designed with purpose, crafted with care, and made to last.

We’ve moved beyond the throwaway tee. Today, every item in our collection — from ultra-soft organic cotton t-shirts to heavyweight hoodies, recycled outerwear, and everyday accessories — is built on a foundation of sustainability. Working with certified partners who share our values, we’ve embraced organic fibres, recycled materials, and low-impact production processes. It’s a slower, more thoughtful way of doing things, but one we believe in.

More than a memento, this is merchandise designed to live beyond the festival gates — worn and re-worn, season after season. You’ll notice the difference: elevated fabrics, refined fits, and garments that are built to last. Yes, prices have followed suit, but so too has the quality, ethical integrity, and environmental responsibility stitched into every piece.

And of course, no collection would be complete without a nod to our landmark venue — the Heineken Big Top. This year, our printed logo is etched proudly across a selection of garments, a lasting symbol of those unforgettable nights under canvas.

Where to Find Us
You’ll find the full collection at three key festival locations:

• The Festival Gallery on William Street

• The Festival Garden in Eyre Square

• The Heineken Big Top, for those looking to mark a memorable night with a meaningful keepsake

So whether you’re catching a show, strolling the city, or heading home with stories to tell, wear the festival — and your values — with pride.
