The world's first recycled content recycled and reusable event cup

This cup will be used at Planet Bluegrass events throughout the summer. The blank cup is available for custom prints.

We are proud to announce the launch of the world’s first reusable “event” cup made from post-consumer recycled content. The cup is made from 25% post-consumer recycled polypropylene and will see its first use next month at Planet Bluegrass’s 39th Annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival in Telluride, CO, an event long known for its deep commitment to sustainability.

After the event in Telluride, these cups will see use at three other Planet Bluegrass events throughout the summer including the 40th Annual RockyGrass, the 22nd Annual Rocky Mountain Folks Festival, and Yonder Mountain String Band’s Kinfolk Celebration — all to take place at Planet Bluegrass Ranch in Lyons, CO.

At all four events attendees will be instructed to either take the cups home for further use, or to deposit them in special bins where they will be collected and later recycled for use at next year’s events.

The cup is available in a 16 ounce “tall” size for other events interested in moving to a recycled and reusable solution for beverages.
