Belgrade Beer Fest has attracted more than 600,000 people last year and has unquestionably become a manifestation of great importance for Serbia and Belgrade.
Belgrade Beer Fest, one of the most visited and most significant country events, which became a social manifestation in the past years, will take place from 12-16 August. This year a special attention will be dedicated to a social campaign focused on getting the attention of the public and heightening awareness of protecting the environment. That's why, this year, under the I CHOOSE TO RECYCLE slogan, a huge campaign whose main theme is ecology i.e. environment protection, will be organized. Two most important goals of this campaign will be citizen's education and fund raising for new recycling containers for Belgrade schools.
From July 1 to August 11, at Nikola Pasic Square, the above mentioned social campaign stand will be placed. Anyone who brings to the stand three or more empty cans will receive a "Belgrade Beer Fest souvenir package", free of charge. The package will include interesting products from commercial sponsors that support the campaign. Besides the above, a special telephone number for SMS messages will be activated. Funds raised from the purchase of empty cans (they will be purchased by Recan Fund), as well as funds raised from SMS messages, will be used for the purchase of recycling containers for Belgrade schools.
