This year’s Vevolution festival, which has been described as vegan TED talks, has smashed their record and sold out of tickets earlier than expected…
Vevolution held seven sold out events in the past year
In the past year, Vevolution held seven sold out events that have come to represent a new vanguard of vegan creatives in the UK.
This year’s Vevolution festival, which has been described as vegan TED talks, has partnered with ProVeg, an international food awareness organisation campaigning to reduce global meat consumption by 50% by 2040. ProVeg UK will host their own stage at the festival alongside the Vevolution main stage.
Speaking about this year’s festival, Vevolution Co-Founder Damien Clarkson said: “Last week I heard that 28% of people in the UK have reduced their meat consumption in the past 6 months. What we are witnessing is mass scale shift towards a meat-free culture. And we are really proud to be playing a role in helping people learn about living a vegan lifestyle.”
Guests and speakers
The festival comprises of TED style short talks, panel discussions, creative workshops and the best of London’s vegan street food scene.
Confirmed speakers include Made In Chelsea stars Lucy and Tiffany Watson, and Nathan Runkle, Founder and President of US farmed animal advocacy organisation Mercy For Animals.
The Vevolution line-up will also have some muscle with UK Ninja Warrior star Chase Armitage, Adam Stansbury (The Plant Powered PT), John Lewis (The Badass Vegan) all taking part.
Leading vegan entrepreneurs like Meriel Armitage (Club Mexicana) and JP and Alex Petrides (allplants), Ian Theasby and Henry David Firth (BOSH!) will also take the stage, as will activists like Tobias Leenaert (The Vegan Strategist), Matthew Glover (Founder of Veganuary) and renowned writer and political activist Tamsin Omond.
And of course it wouldn’t be a vegan festival without delicious food. Club Mexicana will be there serving up Mexican goodness alongside One Planet Pizza, Pomodoro E Basilico and Young Vegans.
