The event is both a celebration and a way to raise the profile of veganism in Australia.

To toast the celebration there will be a fine vegan sparkling Pinot Rose from Goodwill Wine.

There will also be information displays from the newly created Vegan Kids Magazine and Cruelty Free Super, raffle prizes, and inspiring videos from animal sanctuary charities from around Australia.

To emphasise the plant based theme, each table of 10 is named after a delicious fruit or vegetable. Please book your seats now.

This is the first time such an important vegan event has been held in Parliament House and is set to become a major event on the vegan calendar. Not so long ago it would have been hard to imagine something like this happening. Please join, share and enjoy!
