Major events
In addition to public transport, private transport must also be promoted in terms of sustainability. Event organisers themselves can contribute to the environment and society through their own HitchHike platform. Visitors to the same event do not only have the same destination in common, but also most likely share similar interests too, which can make the ride even more interesting.
