4th Annual San Diego Veg Fest!

The event for Southern California’s animal lovers, health conscious hipsters, and forward-thinking folks continues as a downtown, San Diego celebration of plant-based foods, empowering music, specialized speakers, and interactive activities for all ages! Join us for a day of compassionate, veg-friendly fun!
