Manchester Vegan Festival Saturday 1st October 2011

Horse and Jockey, 9 The Green, Chorlton
Manchester, United Kingdom, M21 9HS


New festival that will hopefully be delivered on an annual basis, to promote a Vegan or Vegetarian lifestyle.


There will be a completely Vegan and Vegetarian Market outside the Horse and Jockey Pub. The rest of the Festival will be on the Green itself with arts and crafts, live acoustic music, information stalls from Greenpeace, Sea Shepherd, The Vegan Society, The Vegetarian Society. Additionally there will be guest speakers throughout the day in another marquee.


Mission/Aim: To deliver a cohesive and all inclusive event in the UK's 3rd largest city, for Vegans, Vegetarians and all who are interested in finding out more about those lifestyles.

How convientiant. I'm moving to Manchester in September. :)

Mmmm, very convenient!

We can all crash at your place afterwards? :wink_ani:

Sure. LOL It will be a bit of a squeeze though. ;)

Hey Witchy - so that's Brighton and Manchester - you are on a roll now!

Just got to sort Bristol and London out for you..... :)

PLease may I bags a space at your place xWitchy? :bigsmile:
I'll be tidy.

No need, think I found a good place to stay over in Manchester lol.

I am SO there. Manchester is only a train ride away. Will I need to book tickets for it, or is it just a turn up on the door kind of thing?

If it's on a green I imagine it's a non-ticketed event open to everyone?

"on a green"? what does that mean?

Like a village green (well, green space). Common land. Presumably grass-covered.

Oh WOW. By complete coincidence I'll be visiting Manchester that weekend. Time for some festival appreciation.

URGENT MESSAGE:

Please go to the West Midlands Vegan Festival on the 29th October - to make up for any disappointment.

Damn, I wanted to go to that!

Too popular eh?

Oosh Frank, you go getting all of our hopes up! :) I shall have to poke you for that on facebook. The west midland's festival is a big one! Worth the travel!

Maybe Manchester will happen next year.

WMVF will be cool anyway.
