Powerstock Festival (scheduled to be held in the summer of 2007 in the suggestive location of a wind-farm) intends to become the first mainstream summer music event aimed at sensitizing festival-goers to the principles of sustainable development, with special attention on renewable energies and water.
Importantly, the meaning of Powerstock will be extended to sensitise festival-goers to the most pressing issue of all: the world’s depleting supplies of fresh water which, as first principle of life, is literally the stock that gives us the power of life.
Interdependence is at the core of Powerstock’s intention to up-date the spirit of revolution that characterised the Woodstock generation.
