The festival saw the participation of nearly 130 partners, including social organizations, businesses, and restaurants that provided vegetarian food prepared from natural, clean, and safe ingredients. There were booths featuring distinctive dishes from various regions, such as vegetarian pho (rice noodle soup) and chung (square sticky rice) cake from the northern region, vegetarian Bun bo Hue (Hue beef noodle soup) from the central region, and vegetarian Banh xeo (Vietnamese pancake) from the southern region. Attendees could also eat vegetarian dishes from different culinary traditions, such as Italian vegetarian pizza, American vegetarian burgers, and Korean vegetarian pho.


At the Vegan Food Festival 2024, visitors could participate in vegetarian cooking classes and a vegetarian cooking competition to learn how to prepare delicious and nutritious vegetarian meals for themselves and their families. This provided essential knowledge and skills for those new to exploring vegetarianism and those who have been following a vegetarian lifestyle for many years, making it an opportunity not to be missed.

It's not just about indulging in delicious dishes from various regions, but also a chance to meet others who share the goal of an environmentally friendly lifestyle," said Nguyen Thi Van Anh, a long-time vegetarian. Throughout the festival, visitors could also engage in talks and discussions about the journey to a vegetarian lifestyle, led by nutrition experts, doctors, singers, and others./.
