A major vegan festival is set to return to Scotland this July.

The Glasgow Vegan Summer Festival will take place on Sunday, July 12, promising a day of plant-based food, ethical shopping, and community spirit.

It will be held at Easterhouse Sports Centre in Glasgow from 10.30am to 4.30pm and will feature more than 80 stalls offering vegan products, as well as talks and demonstrations.

Stalls will include everything from food and beauty items to homeware and crafts.

Miracle’s Mission, a non-profit animal welfare organisation, will be among the featured charities.

The organisation supports sick, injured, and disabled animals worldwide through education, neutering programmes, and rehoming.

The Glasgow Vegan Summer Festival is open to everyone, whether fully vegan, vegetarian, or simply curious about plant-based living.



Victoria Bryceson, founder of Vegan Events UK, said: "I’m looking forward to bringing our vegan festival back to Glasgow this summer.

"Discover a wonderful vegan community spirit at Glasgow Vegan Summer Festival with more than 80 fantastic stalls and lots of new things to try plus new experiences.

"Early confirmed caterers are Greek Vegan Deli, who will be serving up an iconic range of traditional Greek vegan savouries, and The Plant Based Chippy, who’ll be serving their irresistible vegan meals, including their iconic Vfish n’ Chips, a plant-based classic favourite that you won’t want to miss."

Standard entry costs £5, while VIP tickets are priced at £15 and include fast-track entry and a goody bag filled with vegan samples, discounts, and offers.

Children under 16 can attend for free.

VIP attendees aged 18 and over will also receive a free can of CBD-infused wine from festival sponsors Rebel Wine.

Tickets can be purchased online at https://www.veganeventsuk.co.uk/buy-tickets/



Free parking will be available at the venue, along with additional street parking nearby.

Organisers are also seeking volunteers to help on the day, with shifts available from 9am to 1pm, 12pm to 4pm, or for the full day.

Volunteer roles include scanning tickets, handling card payments, and assisting at the Miracle’s Mission charity stall.

Volunteers will receive free entry to the festival and a food voucher.
