We're delighted to announce that Forest Green Rovers have been shortlisted for the following International AGF (A Greener Future) Awards categories with descriptions listed below:

COMMUNITY ACTION AWARD

A strong connection with the local community and sense of community within the event or venue is celebrated here. This award recognises those demonstrating outstanding social inclusion, action for unity and acceptance between people, and positive projects that provide benefit to others beyond the event itself.

GREENER ARENA AWARD

The highest scoring venue worldwide in the Greener Arena certification assessments.

Awards are given across 10 important sustainability categories, including power, water, food and travel, and the top accolade of the International Greener Festival Award and International Greener Arena Award 2025.

The ceremony will be held on 25th February to close the Green Events & Innovations Conference at the Royal Lancaster London.

Finalists are selected from all AGF certified Greener Events, Festivals and Arenas over the past year, with top scores across key sustainability criteria. Applicants undergo a detailed assessment, site visits, and analysis by AGF auditors.

To be eligible to enter the awards, it is necessary to apply for certification and provide evidence such as energy source and usage, water consumption, waste transfer notes, transport measurements, material traceability, and survey data. Additionally, green innovations from festivals and events have been selected and are judged by an independent jury.
