Heather Mills / Vegfest Free

Birmingham will host the UK’s largest free vegan festival next spring as Vegfest Free arrives at Edgbaston Cricket Ground on Saturday 25 April 2026, opening its doors to thousands of people curious about plant-based living. With up to 170 fully vegan stalls, live music, family-friendly activities and more than 30 speakers, Vegfest Free is designed to bring together the established vegan community and those exploring plant-based lifestyles for the very first time, without cost being a barrier. At a time when independent ethical businesses, charities and grassroots campaigners are facing unprecedented pressures, Vegfest Free is taking a bold, new approach.
