Have a Plant Powered Christmas: London Vegan Fayre Lights Up Kensington Town Halls!

7th and 8th December 2024 – Organised by VegfestUK Ltd This Christmas, let’s make a difference one plate at a time! The First London Vegan Fayre is the place to be this December…

Whether you are vegan, vegan curious, love trying new food…. or wondering what to buy your vegan friend this Christmas! The London Vegan Fayre has the answers……

The highly anticipated London Vegan Fayre is set to debut with a festive showcase at the prestigious Kensington Town Hall on December 7 and 8 2024.

This exciting new event will bring together over 100 exhibitors and is expected to attract more than 2,000 visitors across the weekend, offering a seasonal celebration of vegan food, products and lifestyle in the heart of London.

Kids Area

The event includes a Kids Area, the upstairs stage for interviews, talks, comedy and entertainment, and some top street food vegan caterers taking care of business, and with the holidays season just around the corner, the focus is very much on food, shopping, eating , drinking and generally making merry – vegan style.

Manager, founder and pioneering vegan organiser of over 20 years Tim Barford says:

“London Vegan Fayre will be warm, cosy and busy, and is in the main a celebration of our wonderful independent vegan traders collective.

The show is also a brilliant opportunity to come along and not only show support for the independent business owners however also pick up a good few bargains & gifts whilst indulging in some pre-holiday treats.

What better way to get the festive season off to a cracking start than with a lush vegan event in the centre of London packed full of wonderful people, products and ethics.

Best Vegan Mince Pie Competition

The London Vegan Fayre is all about our traders and having a bit of an indulgent time, and discovering who wins the Best Vegan Mince Pie Competition. Expect fun and merriment and lots of food – why not?”

London Vegan Fayre presenter Karin Ridgers adds:

“Forget the turkey! At the Kensington Town Halls, we’re redefining Christmas feasting with a mouthwatering array of plant-powered delights. Do come along and join us ….. and discover the joy of compassionate vegan delights this festive season.”

Kensington Town Hall has a long tradition of hosting vegan events, including the London Vegan Festival up until 2014, and the Animal Aid Xmas Without Cruelty event which ran up until 2019, and the London Vegan Fayre this coming December aims to more than live up to the memories of these much loved and revered shows from pre lockdown and pre mainstream days.

“It’s a really fantastic venue to work in and we are very much looking forward to opening the doors to a flood of visitors hungry for the best of the vegan independents in town – marvellous. Happy Festivities!” Tim adds.
