Big Green Coach is an award-winning, specialist travel company, focussed on the music and special events industries. Over the past 15 years, BGC has been a positive disruptor to transport for music festivals, supporting people who demand environmentally responsible transport to their favourite events.

Big Green Coach is the UK’s largest carbon-neutral event travel provider and a pioneer in sustainable transport with 15 years of industry expertise. They are proud to be a part of tackling the environmental impact that travel has in the live events and transport industries.

BGC received a Green Guardians Award in 2023 from IQ Magazine as their efforts increased to make all events more sustainable. With audience travel accounting for almost 80% of carbon emissions for live events, it’s never been more important to think about travel choices.
Coach travel is already the greenest option, taking cars off the road and using less land for parking. Emissions for every journey are calculated and then offset by investing in sustainability projects via their partnership with Ecolibrium. Their work with Cool Earth means they have now sponsored close to 2m sq.ft. of Amazon rainforest for ten years.

BGC are pleased to confirm 674.5 tonnes of carbon will be balanced for 2023 with UK charity Ecolibrium, via a five-figure donation to their Trees+ programme.
