If you’ve ever sighed wistfully while reading/hearing about
the awesome vegan festivals held in hip cities like Portland, LA, Vancouver, and
Toronto, fret not. FOMO will soon be a thing of the past for us Calgarians with
next year’s VegFest Calgary.

The event, which is still in the planning stages, is set to
take place sometime in May or June next year, with details still being ironed out by the dedicated team of volunteers and organizers.
Since the date is still a bit in the future, a welcome picnic in the
park will be held at Shaw Millennium Park on Saturday, August 13 at 11:30 a.m to celebrate and build anticipation for this
landmark event. The picnic itself is free, and attendees are asked to register online, and to bring along their own picnic essentials (like a blanket and an optional vegan picnic food item).
While there, attendees will be able to dig in to some tasty food samples from Vegan Eats YYC, while learning about the ways in which they can help out and volunteer their time to make next year's festival a success.
