A VEGAN festival is returning to Bournemouth later this year.

Vegan Events UK is bringing a ‘vegan extravaganza’ to Citygate Centre in September.

The event is set to feature more than 60 stalls showcasing the very best of the vegan lifestyle, with offerings including food, drink, beauty products, candles, crafts, gifts and clothing.

Attendees can also enjoy world food caterers, exciting cookery demos, inspirational talks, interactive workshops, yoga and children’s activities.

Victoria Bryceson, Vegan Events UK founder and festival organiser, said: “I’m really excited about bringing our festival to Bournemouth again this year.

"We’ve had such amazing feedback from everyone, I’m expecting it to be a sell-out event. We look forward to welcoming everyone, not just vegans, to the event.

"Our goal is to continue to bring vegans and non-vegans together, to support local vegan business, and to show just how easy it is to be vegan.”

Vegan Events UK was founded in 2017 with the aim of promoting veganism.

Its series of vegan festivals around the UK provide small and family run businesses with a place to promote and sell their products and services.

This year’s Bournemouth event will take place on Saturday, September 7, between 10.30am and 4pm.

Entry is £5 or £15 for VIP tickets purchased in advance from www.veganeventsuk.co.uk to include a goody bag full of vegan products, samples, discounts and offers.

Admissions for under 16s is free.
