The 20th Annual Central Florida Veg Fest, presented by Vegetarians of Central Florida, will take place this weekend at Orlando Festival Park on Saturday, October 25, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Recognized as one of the largest and longest-running vegan festivals in the world, the event is free to attend and open to the public.
Now in its 20th year, Central Florida Veg Fest features a full schedule of exhibits, vendors, and activities highlighting plant-based living. The festival will include more than 200 vendors and 100 contributors, offering vegan food, products, and educational resources. Guests can explore cooking demonstrations, presentations, and interactive exhibits throughout the day.
The event is family-friendly, dog-friendly, alcohol-free, and smoke-free, welcoming attendees of all ages and backgrounds. Veg Fest focuses on five key themes: Vegan Cuisine, Health & Wellness, Environment, Animal Welfare & Rights, and Community Building. The festival’s goal is to provide a space for learning, connection, and discussion about the benefits of plant-based choices and sustainable living.
Visitors can also enjoy a range of entertainment and activities, including live music, a veggie kids zone, an animal haven, and an artist corner. With numerous food vendors on-site, there will be options for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks throughout the day.
Central Florida Veg Fest emphasizes environmental responsibility and strives to operate as a zero-waste event. The festival incorporates solar power, provides recycling and composting stations, and encourages attendees to bring reusable containers and utensils.
