VegfestUK events traditionally pride themselves on the calibre and variety of vegan food in store and its 7^th year annual event at Olympia London on October 26-27 is no different, if not setting the bar higher than ever before, with a conveyor belt of mouthwatering, globally inspired vegan food from altogether 25 caterers alongside a selection of bars from the Vegan Food Village across the weekend.

Ranging from vegan editions of traditional British favourites such as burgers, “fish” and chips, hot dogs, pizzas, “kentucky fried seitan”, beers, to global influences such as Indian curry, sushis,  Caribbean, Jamaican and Greek, as well as vegan seafood and superfood dishes, on top of desserts such as cakes, ice cream, cookies and puddings, the Vegan Food Village is set to capture the imagination of vegans and foodies alike. Best advice for the weekend? Arrive hungry and try a bit of everything!
