Vegfest Guelph Sponsorship - 2016

11am to 5pm
Goldie Mill Ruins and Guelph Youth Music Centre, Guelph, Ontario

Dear Community Partner,

We are pleased to announce the 3rd annual Vegfest Guelph festival, which will be held on Sunday, September 25, 2016. Vegfest is an exciting opportunity to celebrate the benefits of a plant-based lifestyle, and to promote compassionate, sustainable and healthy living for all. The festival will be held at the historic Goldie Mill Ruins and Guelph Youth Music Centre, along the banks of the Speed River in beautiful downtown Guelph.

We would like to invite you to be a sponsor of Vegfest Guelph 2016. By supporting this annual event, your company will gain a considerable amount of exposure among an important and growing demographic of consumers interested in plant-based living.

Your sponsorship will ensure our success in bringing Guelph to the forefront of the “vegfest” movement emerging across North America, as individuals and communities become increasingly aware of the environmental and health benefits of vegan and compassionate living.

We are still reeling from the enormous success of our first two Vegfests — with Vegfest Guelph 2015 attracting nearly 5,000 attendees! It’s been the only event of its kind in Guelph — an entirely vegan celebration of living a compassionate, plant-based lifestyle.

About Vegfest Guelph

Vegfest Guelph was brought to life by a small group of dedicated volunteers wishing to promote veganism in a fun and welcoming setting. The festival invites “seasoned” vegetarians and vegans, those curious about adopting a plant-based lifestyle, and anyone wanting to enjoy a fun, local event. Our aim is to empower people to make positive changes in the way they eat and live.

Festival features

Vegfest Guelph 2016 will feature a variety of speakers from the U.S. and Canada, food demonstrations, nonprofit exhibitors, vendors, children’s activities, music, and fabulous animal-friendly (vegan) food.
