This year, the Coastalong Music and Sustainability Festival took attendees along for a fun-filled bike ride.
The annual festival was held Saturday 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Drake Stadium, centering sustainability and environmental awareness while also creating an engaging atmosphere for music lovers. Coastalong hosted food vendors, student clubs and engineering projects, all of which were organized by the event’s various student committees.
Although the festival has been held at Sunset Canyon Recreation Center in recent years, Hannah Freedman, executive director of Coastalong, said the event was moved to Drake Stadium because the center was under construction this year. Freedman, a fourth-year environmental studies and geography student, said she was excited to be in a larger venue, and although it was difficult to change some logistics, Coastalong’s UCLA community partners were invaluable in facilitating the shift alongside the festival’s team
