Europe’s
premier
vegan food
event Vegfest
descending
in Scotland
in December
SCOTLAND is set to embrace an era
of vegan lifestyles and healthy eating
with one of Europe's leading vegan
food and lifestyle events Vegfest
descends on Scottish soil for the very
first time on December 5th 6th in Hall
3 of the prestigious SECC in Glasgow.
No festival is complete without stacks
of good food and Vegfest Scotland is
no exception with space for 14 caterers
bringing home a wide range of global
vegan cuisines, as well as a series of
cookery demos and living raw food demos
showing you how to get the best out of
plant-based ingredients in your everyday
dishes. Shopaholics will find plenty
of goodies, free samples and special
discounts from altogether 140 stalls.
Health afficionados will find no ends of
tips at the Health Summit on the Saturday
with renowned dieticians, healthcare
professionals and health researchers
shedding light on plant-based nutrition.
Committed vegans looking to influence
those around them to follow a vegan
lifestyle have the chance to network with
a number of like-minded souls at the
Activists Summit on the Sunday.
On top of eating, shopping and
education, there's still time for some lighthearted entertainment from comedians,
musicians, poets and kids entertainers,
plus socialising in the Teen VGN Zone for
teenage veggies/vegans and a Mature
Zone with vegan health information and
refreshments for those in advanced years.
With a number of celebrities speaking
at the event, including vegan punk rocker
John Robb, TV presenter Anneka Svenska,
model Victoria Eisermann, pop singer Pola
Pospieszalska, vegan comedians Andrew
O'Neill and Jake Yapp and others, Vegfest
Scotland is a remarkable colosseum of
culinary delights, a marketplace of vegan
gems and a hub of vegan education
sprinkled with plenty of stardust, humour,
new friends and good vibe.
