ECO-FESTIVAL “CONSCIENZA 2017”: ARTS, MUSIC, INNOVATION

23 September 2017 @ 12:00 am - 10:00 pm

Free

CONSCIENZA 2017 lands at HIPPODROME TONGEREN,
an exceptional indoor and outdoor setting overlooking the horse track

Hippodrome isn’t the kind of place you associate with vegan food and eco-themed manifestations – this year’s ‘Conscienza’ lands there to challenge expectations!

Participants and guests will experience this year’s eco-happening in an airy 500-square meter space, which features a 50-meter long floor-to-ceiling window with spectacular view of the horse track.

Founded and mainly functioning as a horserace venue, the ‘Hippodrome Tongeren’ now acts as a space for “unconventional art experiences”. The historic building hosts irregular events to draw alternative crowd.

One of the highlights of the 2017’s programming is the 2nd edition of Conscienza Festival: a day of conscious consumers and creative re-users that will transform the blank space of hippodrome into an incubator of eco-friendly initiatives, manifestations, products, characters and sounds.
