Vegan Green Festival to Open at Zappeion in Athens

A festival for vegans and those interested in exploring the lifestyle will soon open its gates in Athens, promoting veganism along with organic and eco-friendly products.

Named “Vegan Green Festival”, the event will be held from June 7 to 9 at Zappeion as part of the 2nd Athens Green Festival. It will emphasize supporting small businesses committed to sustainability and fair working conditions.

“Visitors will also have the opportunity to learn about the vegan and zero-waste lifestyle, receiving advice and support in a pleasant and empowering environment, while discovering new products and practices they were previously unaware of,” the organizers said in an announcement.
