This Saturday, July 7, the 3rd Annual Long Beach Vegan Festival will be at Cal State Long Beach in front of the scenic Walter Pyramid from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. This is going to be a huge event with great vegan food, music, entertainment, a chili cook-off, kids’ area, and more!

Whether you’re a vegan or not, this event is for everyone. With over 85 vendors, including Avocadamama, Energy Smoothie Bar, Have A Vegan Day, It’s Vegan Apparel, Native Sol, Rock and Roll Pizza, Yalla Hummus, and so much more, there’s a little something for everyone. Live entertainment at the event includes Drum Circle, Buti Yoga, Kelsey Auria, Slushbox, Baz Francis, and Alarma.

This year’s celebrity judges, who will be deciding who makes the most amazing, delicious, animal-free chili, will be Tabitha Brown, Will Tucker, Jayde Nicole, Genesis Butler, and Cesar Asebedo. The winner will not only receive bragging rights, but they will also win the Vegan Chili Champion Trophy and a gift basket.

The Vegan Festival is a fun event for all ages. There will be kid-friendly activities such as hula hooping, arts and crafts, kids yoga, and face painting.
