Back for it’s fourth edition, The Conscious Festival by Green is the New Black is all set to transform Parkroyal on Pickering into a buzzing hub of ideas on how to make the world a better place. The festival aims to empower everyone to make conscious choices that positively impact us, our surroundings, and the environment.

After you’ve hit up the vendors and food stalls, make your way to THE TALKS Powered by DBS for fresh ideas on how to little green steps to live more mindfully.
