The Conscious Festival x i Light Singapore - i Quest
The Conscious Festival x i Light Singapore introduces i Quest, a unique merger of art, advocacy and adventure that rallies the collective effort of festival visitors to safeguard the future of regional mangrove forests and seaweed meadows while offering a chance to win prizes along the way!
In partnership with Seastainable, The Conscious Festival x i Light Singapore pledges to contribute to a restoration programme located in Dompak Island, Bintan, which conducts research on coastal preservation methods, trains and hires local communities to plant mangrove and seaweed seedlings in their natural habitats. The restoration effort will be driven by festival visitors’ participation in i Quest. There are 19 unique QR codes located throughout our festival grounds. Each QR code scan contributes 1 point to the festival’s community scoreboard in real time. Upon attaining 1,000 points, we pledge to plant 160 mangrove and seaweed seedlings. When this number grows to 3,000, we pledge to increase our contribution to 400 seedlings to the restoration programme.

Switch Off, Turn Up (SOTU)
A key component of the Festival’s sustainability efforts since its inception in 2010, the Switch Off, Turn Up (SOTU) campaign champions energy conservation by encouraging building owners, corporations and businesses to power off non-essential lighting and switch air conditioning to more optimal temperatures throughout the festival duration. Participating organisations are also encouraged to continue with these energy-saving habits beyond the festival period.
A huge thank you to the following stakeholders for joining SOTU this year; find out more information at:
