Join us at Dublin Vegfest 2019 taking place in Griffith College on Saturday 28th & Sunday 29th September @ 11:00-18:00 for a two-day celebration of vegan food and plant based lifestyles.

Feast your way through the weekend in our Vegan Food Village where you’ll find the best and newest vegan plant based cuisines on offer. You don’t have to be a vegan to enjoy Vegfest. Everyone is welcome to just hang out eating great food or learn about plant based health benefits, enjoy an inspirational talk, a food recipe demonstration by a leading chef, try natural ethical products, a workshop or performance among a super friendly gathering.
