I know there are several lists out there already, but of the ones I've found, a lot of the links don't work. Or they're links to old events....like last year old. I'm basing this off of my 2016 list and assuming they'll have another one this year. If not, I'll delete and update as the year goes on.
Most of these VegFests are FREE!
Most events that are selling tickets are offering discounted tickets if bought in advance. I'll do my best to post ticket prices as well as event dates and locations.
Can you believe they're already listing VegFests for 2017?
If I missed something, feel free to shoot me a comment and let me know!

But, it's local and while I still have to pay tolls to get there, I don't have to drive 3 hours like I do for most other VegFests. For this price, it better be astronomically better than the other VegFests we go to...just saying.)

Prudently, we have taken a step back to focus on team-building and development of the organization so that we may move forward with the needed resources to properly facilitate the return of Philadelphia VegFest. Updates will be provided as we progress and notice will be given far in advance of the next scheduled VegFest so vendors may plan accordingly. We, like you, have missed Philadelphia VegFest and are dedicated to its proper return."
