Vegfest Brazil + AVA Summit Latin America
We are happy to announce that the Vegfest 2024, one of the biggest vegan events in Latin America held by Sociedade Vegetariana Brasileira – SVB, is teaming up with the Animal Vegan Advocacy Summit to host an AMAZING 4 day event in São Paulo city in December (5th to 9th) of this year.
The event was created to bring more and more people to the vegan movement and in this current year the lectures and presentations will be carefully curated by a committee of activists from different countries focussing on animal advocacy and activism from South America. We will have amazing foreign speakers and lectures and presentations will be translated in 3 languages (english, spanish and portuguese).
Aside from the paid congress, all the other activities of the event are free, including meditation and yoga, culinary demonstrations, a vegan fair with over a 100 exhibitors, and a thematic Escape Room. We expect at least 8.000 attendees – as we had in 2023.
