This year promises to be the biggest and best VegFest ever! Enjoy over 60 amazing restaurants, free taste samples, cooking demos, cruelty-free shopping, fun for the kids, over 10 entertaining and informative presentations, including Hollywood celebrity Alicia Silverstone and the very popular Dr. Michael Greger. We have doubled the hall space, widened the aisles, and added seating to give attendees plenty of room to enjoy the event. We also added some brand new attractions!

From Sheri: I will be attending VegFest, and I hope you will join me! The more we go and ask for WFPB vendors, the more options we will have.
