Plastival in Nijmegen

The Plastival is a festival for a world without single-use plastic. The event includes vegan food trucks, workshops, talks, films, music and two Greenpeace vessels anchored at the Waalkade. The ships are the ‘Beluga II’ and the Plastic Monster ship which carries a huge artwork made of plastic waste. A large banner at the event reads "Nestlé No Excuse Stop Single Use.” Nestlé produces 1.7 million tonnes of plastic annually.
The Beluga II is on a tour throughout Europe, along with the Plastic Monster. The Plastival is the second stop of the tour. During the ship tour Greenpeace exposes plastic pollution for the monster that it is, ships it back to its corporate creators around the world, and demands that they slay the plastic monster.
