Sydney Vegan Festival 2015

Overview

The Sydney Vegan Festival has arrived, and ethically minded eaters could not be happier. Topping the bill is Thug Kitchen, the infamous creators of the cookbook that told us all to "eat like you give a fuck" in 2014. "You bet your sweet ass everything we do is vegan. Every recipe on our site is completely plant-based," say creators Matt Holloway and Michelle Davis, the big vegan tickets for this year's festival.

Jim Morris, a 79-year-old American bodybuilder, will also be in attendance and we're keen to hear how he keeps on keeping on. For those interested in vegan-focused business, there's Suzy Spoons of Suzy Spoons Vegetarian Butcher and Sadhana Kitchen's Maz Valcorza Pugoy.

Considering the Vegan Festival will be held at the Factory Theatre, there's no way the event could go by without a bit of music, so Gaea will be performing. Food comes from the likes of Suzy Spoons, Superfood Sushi, Herbisaurus Green Goodness, Pana Chocolate, Funky Pies and Nomadic Cafe. Festivities continue until 6pm.
