Admission to the festival is free. There will be numerous veg-related vendors, speakers, food demos, music performances and other activities. For more info you can visit VeggieFestChicago.com This is our 13th year supporting the Veggie Fest and we plan to enjoy it even more this time! While we setup the meetup at noon so it could be easier for everyone to meet each other next to ChicagoVeg booth, we won't have it as a regular/formal meetup, so you can also come at any other time to say Hi and to hang out at our booth (even next day!) The festival hours: from 11 AM to 8 PM on August 8 (Sat.) and August 9 (Sun.) The parking and the festival admission are free! Please help us at our booth during the festival! Regardless if you can volunteer just for an hour or for all day, your help will be greatly appreciated! It can be at any time during both days of the festival. If you are willing to help us at the booth, please send a message with possible time of your availability via ChicagoVeg.org/contact Looking forward to seeing you all at this great event!
