ABOUT US

Coastalong Festival is a 100% bike and solar-powered eco-friendly concert run entirely by students. Founded in 2013, our aim is to demonstrate methods of alternative energy, while providing a fun, entertaining venue to increase awareness about sustainability, clean energy, and the environment. Every year we pride ourselves on expanding the reach of our festival and partnering with student groups and local organizations dedicated to environmental activism.
