Sustainable Gifts for Ravers: 6 Eco-Friendly Festival Gift Ideas | Raveival

Looking for sustainable gifts for the raver in your life? Whether it’s a birthday, holiday, or just-because, these seven eco-friendly festival gift ideas reduce waste, support conscious brands, and will actually get used at every event. Here are some of our favorite sustainable gifts that any raver (not just the eco-conscious ones) would love:

1. Rave Society Reusable Nipple Patches

Rave Society‘s reusable nipple pasties are waterproof, sweat-resistant pasties that actually stay on all night and can be worn again and again. Their rave gear helps the planet by cutting down the waste from single-use pasties.

2. GOB Compostable Earplugs for Ravers

GOB‘s earplugs protect hearing health and our planet. GOB’s earplugs are the first earplugs to be made from 100% mycelium instead of the petroleum-based foam found in the typical single-use earplugs. Since mycelium is a bioengineered material, it’s as compostable as a piece of fruit. That means when you’re done raving the night away, the Earth can take them back.

3. Secondhand Rave clothing from Raveival

Raveival has secondhand rave clothing that ravers love, and combining a few of the pre-loved festival pieces and you have a low-impact, circular-fashion gift bundle. Buying used festival clothes helps keep clothing in circulation and prevents the carbon emissions that would have come from manufacturing a similar item. Browse funky rave tops, festival swimwear, and rave accessories or let your raver choose with a Raveival gift card!

4. Best in Tents Festival Camping Experience

Best in Tents offers fully equipped festival camping setup that lets you show up to a festival and camp instantly. No hauling, no setup, no buying gear. Their equipment is reused across festivals, reducing waste and making festival camping more sustainable!

5. The Good Glitter Biodegradable Glitter

The Good Glitter‘s bio-glitter is an alternative to plastic glitters. It is independently tested and proven to break down naturally in waterways like sewers, lakes, and landfills so that it never pollutes the oceans. Its made of eucalyptus cellulose, and it award winning, and rigorously tested to high standards. The Good Glitter has over 10 colors, ranging from champagne wishes and mermaid dreams to arctic sparkle.

6. Keep Your Cadence Refillable Travel Kit

A refillable travel-size essentials kit from Keep Your Cadence will help your rave save money and stay organized. These refillable containers will help reduce single-use/travel size packaging waste. It’s always recommended to buy in bulk (Single-use and travel-size bottles use more plastic per unit of product compared to larger bottles). Your raver will appreciate how much easier it is to keep their toiletries organized whenever they travel for an event.

Sustainability doesn’t have to be complicated. By choosing a high-quality, compostable, or secondhand gifts, you’re helping keep our planet green and giving a practical gift for a raver 🕺🏼

Are biodegradable glitter products actually eco-friendly?
