Established in 2003 by Yaoh manager Tim Barford, the company aim to 'combine the seriousness of veganism with a rock-'n-roll festival atmosphere, allowing people to do the following all in one place: eating, socialising, learning about healthy ethical eating, dancing and partying.'

Their website reads: "VegfestUK events are all about GOING VEGAN.

"It's not about eating less meat, or choosing eggs over fish, or anything like that.

"It's about going vegan, pure and simple.

"For the animals, for the planet, for your health, and for sustainable global food production. And it's so easy.

"Vegfest will demonstrate just how easy it is to go vegan and stay vegan."

3 entry on the door (under 16's free) or 13 for advance VIP tickets from veganeventsuk@gmail.com to include fast track entry and a goody bag full of products, samples, discounts and offers.
