EcoJazz 5 marked an important milestone in the festival’s commitment to sustainability: for the first time, its entire stage was powered by solar energy and battery storage, thanks to the collaboration of Protect the Planet. The environmental foundation has now featured the festival on its official website.
A Festival Powered by the Sun
Held in Puerto del Rosario, Fuerteventura, EcoJazz 5 demonstrated how live music and environmental responsibility can come together in practice.
Throughout the evening, the stage operated entirely on solar power and battery storage, without the need for a conventional generator.
From the environmental talks to the final performance by the EcoJazz All-Stars, the entire program ran without a single power interruption.
This achievement represents an important step forward for a festival that has consistently connected artistic expression, ecological awareness and community participation.
Five Editions Connecting Music and Climate Action
For five editions, EcoJazz has promoted a simple but powerful idea: culture and climate action belong on the same stage.
The festival brings together live jazz, environmental education, interdisciplinary performances and initiatives that encourage a more sustainable relationship with the planet.
At EcoJazz 5, that commitment went beyond the festival’s artistic and educational program. The stage itself became an example of what is possible when renewable energy is integrated into cultural events.
Three Years of Collaboration with Protect the Planet
The collaboration between EcoJazz and Protect the Planet has now continued for three years, supporting the festival’s environmental mission.
The foundation has also shared the story of EcoJazz on its official website, highlighting the connection between music, sustainability and positive environmental action in Fuerteventura.
This recognition offers an opportunity to bring the festival’s message to a wider audience and encourage more cultural initiatives to explore sustainable solutions.
