Averda has secured a contract to become the environmental partner for two major events in Saudi Arabia’s cultural calendar this month. The firm will manage waste and cleaning services for The Red Sea Film Festival and the Kingdom’s debut Formula 1 STC Saudi Arabian Grand Prix 2021, which is being held in Jeddah.
According to a statement, The Red Sea Film Festival takes place in Jeddah’s historic old town from December 6 to 15. Saudi Arabia’s F1 began on December 3 in the Jeddah Corniche Circuit.
“Averda is honored to become the trusted partner to support these two major events in Jeddah and ensure the best possible experience and environment for the many national and international visitors,” said Averda chief growth officer Mazen Chebaklo.
The firm said its crew will work around the clock at both events, to ensure the locations are kept clean and has set aside additional resources in readiness for any urgent issues. For the film festival, the company will be responsible for managing construction and demolition waste from the temporary installations, and ensuring all litter and waste generated by film-goers is promptly and responsibly removed, leaving the environment pristine, the statement concluded.
