Discover VegFests Worldwide
VegFests are vibrant festivals, large and small, that promote the vegan lifestyle in communities everywhere. They feature food, speakers, exhibits, and merchandise—welcoming vegans, vegetarians, and the veg-curious alike.
The first VegFest was organized by the Toronto Vegetarian Association in 1985. Chester County (PA) held an annual VegFest from 1991 to 2018, and Boston hosted its first major event in 1996.
Whether you’re planning your first visit or looking to reconnect with the vegan movement, you’ll find upcoming festivals across the globe right here.
Organizers and vendors can also contact the American Vegan Society at info@americanvegan.org for FREE vegan materials or discounted AVS-published books.
