New England VegFest 2025

The New England VegFest (NEVF) is a free festival that brings the local community together to celebrate veganism: an animal-friendly, environmentally sustainable, and healthy lifestyle. Join us to sample and buy delicious vegan food and other plant-based products.

Learn about compassionate causes, hear amazing speakers, and participate in fun activities. The event began in 2010 and has grown into one of the largest VegFests in the country, attracting thousands from across New England.

New England VegFest 2025 is ALL AGES and FREE to attend from 12pm-5pm. We are asking attendees to please reserve a complimentary ticket to allow our team to plan more effectively and estimate attendance and supplies. It also will allow us a means of communicating directly with our attendees should we have updates to share. Your ticket earns you a FREE RAFFLE ticket at our awesome raffle table full of amazing prizes, so keep it handy! No ticket = no raffle entry.

Reserve 1 free ticket for yourself, or up to 5 free tickets per order (if you are arriving together as a family/group.) If you aren't arriving together please add another reservation under the additional name/s. If you made a reservation but are unable to attend, please cancel your reservation so we can better estimate attendance.
