PILGRIMAGE MUSIC & CULTURAL FESTIVAL MAKES A BIG COMMUNITY IMPACT

Fast-approaching Pilgrimage Music & Cultural Festival is dedicated to making a big impact during the two-day celebration of art, culture, and diverse music on September 25 & 26 at The Park at Harlinsdale Farm in Franklin, TN.

Proudly continuing their partnership for a third year, Pilgrimage and Twice Daily®, the local convenience and fuel retailer serving Middle Tennessee, are committed to making the festival 100% Carbon Neutral. Through Twice Daily®’s reduced emissions program, Twice Daily® Thrive™, carbon emissions generated from the event will be measured and negative impacts on the environment neutralized through investments in certified carbon offset projects. Twice Daily® Thrive™ is a community program that offsets the carbon footprint of guests every time they fuel up at a Twice Daily® store in Middle Tennessee and the surrounding areas. The program invests in certified carbon reduction projects, including planting trees, solar power generation, landfill gas capture, and more, which result in up to 30% reduced emissions.

Adding to its focus on sustainability, Nashville, TN-based ORCA is welcomed this year as a new festival sponsor. Designed specifically for Pilgrimage, ORCA will be releasing limited edition reusable drinkware for purchase in an effort to cut down the use of plastic bottles throughout the weekend. A custom 27oz Chaser, one of ORCA’s most popular drinkware products, will be available for purchase during a limited presale before the festival weekend, and on-site at the Wicked Weed Brew Hall. ORCA is also supplying multiple water refill stations across the 200-acre property.
