SON Estrella Galicia Posidonia: An Eco-Friendly Musical Experience

The SON Estrella Galicia Posidonia festival is set to return to the stunning island of Formentera from October 3 to 5, 2025. Known for its commitment to sustainability and innovation in the music scene, this year's festival promises to be a remarkable experience for its limited audience of just 350 participants.

A Unique Concept

This event merges the joys of live music, exquisite cuisine, and a deep commitment to environmental responsibility. The festival focuses on generating a positive impact, offering an artists' showcase featuring established and emerging talents who embody the spirit of Estrella Galicia. The Posidonia festival is not just another music event; it is a movement, promoting a distinct cultural narrative prioritizing sustainability.

Culinary Innovations

Adding another layer to the festival experience is its gastronomic offering. Renowned chefs from Formentera are collaborating to design a menu that emphasizes locally sourced ingredients, ensuring that every bite is not only delicious but also supports local agriculture. This culinary experience is complemented by Estrella Galicia beer, a brand with deep local roots and increasing global outreach, currently available in over 70 countries.

Commitment to Environmental Causes

Since its inception in 2017, SON Estrella Galicia Posidonia has championed responsible tourism and local ecosystem protection. This year, the festival is aligning with the Save Posidonia Project, dedicated to preserving the vital marine plant that plays a crucial role in the ecosystem.

The festival's partnership with local entities and suppliers aims to ensure the economic and social benefits are tangible and reach beyond the festival grounds. Their efforts received recognition with the TRUE Platinum certification for the second consecutive year, confirming the festival's status as the world’s only Zero Waste event certified by GBCI® (Green Business Certification Inc.™).

A Historic Achievement

Achieving a zero-emission status since 2021, the Posidonia festival demonstrates its commitment to environmental sustainability. This year, the festival aims to elevate its impact while adhering to its core mission of promoting responsible engagement with both the community and nature. Estrella Galicia, the flagship brand of Corporación Hijos de Rivera, has been a registered BCorp since 2024, committed to creating positive change through five fundamental pillars: local pride, people empowerment, planet resilience, partner responsibility, and essential governance.

In a world where environmental concerns continue to escalate, festivals like SON Estrella Galicia Posidonia remind us that music and gastronomy can coexist harmoniously with nature's preservation. Attendees can indulge in great sounds and tastes, knowing that their participation helps protect and regenerate the environment of Formentera.
