In an effort to reimagine wasteful promotional tactics, Nashville’s Deep Tropics Festival is trading flyers for flowers.
Instead of distributing paper flyers destined for the trash, Deep Tropics is handing out packets of wildflower seeds—each one stamped with the 2025 lineup and a message of regeneration. The goal is to turn everyday music fans into agents of sustainability—planting wildflowers, not litter.
The idea fits seamlessly into the festival’s climate-positive mission, which includes 100% offset carbon emissions, zero single-use plastics, and much more. The seed packets also serve as a metaphor for the Deep Tropics community—each person a seed, each moment a chance to grow something meaningful.
This year’s festival features a genre-bending lineup with artists like Chris Lake, Aluna, Alison Wonderland, and Lane 8. Beyond the music, attendees can recharge at the Oasis Spa—offering saunas, cold plunges, red light therapy, and more—or dive into immersive activations like a sustainable fashion show, interactive workshops with Ableton, and powerful panels hosted by FEMME HOUSE, Lincoln Jesser, and more.
This creative twist on flyers turns a single-use interaction into a small act of environmental care, aligning with the larger movement of redefining the role music festivals can play in sustainability and regenerative culture.
Deep Tropics is produced by forward-thinking, dance music enthusiasts at Full Circle Presents. The creative site and stage designs will take the energy to stratospheric levels. The one-of-a-kind amphitheater in the park ensures every viewpoint is perfect with a beautiful downtown skyline view in the backdrop. It will host the massive, ancient temple inspired stage called “Meru”dedicated to house music, a bass music focused stage called “Lotus” and a third 360 stage known as the “Congo” along with a “Speakeasy” stage in an air-conditioned tent. Intricate lasers, choreographed audio & visual and art installs will illuminate the park. The venue is less than a mile from downtown Nashville, and some of the city’s coolest districts.
