We can’t wait for the next London Vegan Festival! With stalls, caterers, talks, music and children’s activities, there will be plenty in the way of entertainment, good food, and information for all. 

Our trusted London volunteers will be running The Vegan Society stall at this event. Between signing up new members, accepting donations, and selling merchandise, as well as giving out advice and guidance to vegans and the vegan curious, they’ll surely be kept busy!

Hosts of our Volunteer of the Year Awards 2014, which Fiona Oakes will be presenting, V-Delicious 2014 will take place at Kensington Olympia, and The Vegan Society is proud to be a partner of this innovative event. 

The Vegan Society had a successful time at V-Delicious last year, signing up over 80 new members and giving guidance and support to those enquiring about veganism. We’re excited to build on this success to begin the lead up to our 70th year celebrations: we have plenty planned for this event!

The first North-West Vegan Festival held across two venues (Lancaster Town Hall, Dalton Square, Lancaster, LA1 1PJ - and also at the Gregson Community and Arts Centre, 33 Moorgate, Moor Lane, Lancaster LA1 3PY) is shaping up to be a great event! There will be 115 stalls across the 2 venues as well as a vegan café, cookery demos, talks, and children’s activities, a vegan beer and wine festival, films in a 26 seat cinema, and even vegan speed-dating.

We’re really excited to be going back to VegFest Bristol this year. Our stall will definitely have a fun atmosphere to it. Always a great event, there will be over 140 stalls - including food, bodycare, accessories, fashion, merchandise and information.

There is live music from a variety of performers and DJs in the evening, giving the event a real festival feel. Our fingers are crossed for good weather!

Host to three veggie whole food shops and a vegan supermarket, some say Chorlton is the North West’s veggie capital. So it seems fitting that Manchester’s Vegan Fair is taking place there. With lots of stalls, two bars, poetry readings, talks, live music, a chocolate fountain and even rickshaw rides, the event definitely looks set to impress!

VegFest UK Brighton, taking place in the Hove Centre, is one of the most popular vegan events of the year. Selling out the stalls months before the event, there are bound to be some amazing stallholders in attendance, as well as cookery classes, talks and even a speed-dating session being held across the two days.

The Vegan Society will be at the event with staff and volunteers offering advice, guidance and support to visitors, as well as selling books, bags, and, of course, VEG 1. They will also be signing up new members and receiving donations.

Alex, our Volunteer Coordinator decided to take the opportunity to attend our local Sustainability Fair at The Custard Factory this year. As you can see, setting up stalls is a breeze for Alex but she couldn't have done it without two of our fabulous volunteers. 

Together they spoke to many people about why The Vegan Society was there, encouraging them to make the connection between how they can alter their lifestyle to help the environment.

This popular annual event held at the Kensington Town Hall is a one-stop shop for all vegan festive fare, and this year was no different! The venue was jam-packed with interesting stall holders and visitors coming along to snap up some vegan goodies.

Around 40 members of The Vegan Society came to our Annual General Meeting (AGM) on the 30th of November 2013. The atmosphere in the room was fantastic, fuelled with positive energy and the flow of ideas.

Highlights from the day included a talk by Roxy Shahidi, a Dr Frey Ellis Memorial Lecture, and a never-before-seen sneak preview of our new website. Proposals for resolution were discussed and voted on and a number of key motions were passed. 

Ruth Semple, Alex Douglas, and Ben Hewitt attended Brecknock Road Vegan Festival in London, interviewing trademark holders, members of the public, Vegan Society members, and volunteers for a new film about the international Vegan Trademark. 

A vegan festival held outdoors for the first time, the event was a real first for London and a great way to encourage local businesses to take notice of vegans.
