Vegan SoulFest is set up to be one of the most anticipated events this summer in the state of Maryland with over 9,000 tickets sold. This festival provides high-energy experiences for people to establish a diverse community that promotes a healthier, compassionate, and sustainable lifestyle. Nicolo Massa of Plant Pusher, the festival’s advertising and media sponsor simply states, “You’re gonna love it!”

Festival creators, Brenda Sanders of Afro-Vegan Society and Naijha Wright-Brown of Black Veg Society and The Land of Kush, created Vegan SoulFest in response to the lack of representation of black vegans in the mainstream vegan movement. The festival seeks to create a space for black vegans to celebrate their culture and educate others about veganism while featuring plant-based cooking demonstrations, expert talks, a wellness village, children’s activities, DJ entertainment, and live music performances.

In addition to vegan food vendors from local establishments such as the multi-award-winning Land of Kush, with plans to host the VIP lounge experience this year, the cultural vegan and music festival will feature American R&B singer, rapper, songwriter, and record producer, Dwele, from Detroit, Michigan and other local and national recording artists.

Other sponsors and partners include Black Veg Society, Afro-Vegan Society, The Land of Kush, CLLCTIVLY, Plant Pusher, Mercy for Animals, A Well-Fed World, VegFund, Physicians Committee of Responsible Medicine, Dr. Bronner’s, Stray Dog Institute, the City of Baltimore, the Office of the Mayor, Visit Baltimore, and Visit Maryland.

CLLCTIVLY partnered with Vegan Soulfest in 2022 to launch its annual 3-day festival, We Give Black Fest which helped to raise more than $233,000 for local Black-led organizations. It has since grown into its own event that will take place August 4th – 6th this year. CLLCTIVLY is a place-based social change organization centering Black genius, narrative power, social networks, and resource mobilization to ensure Black communities have what they need to thrive. We Give Black Fest is dedicated to spreading Black joy, amplifying Black-led social change, and celebrating culture and social impact. Visit www.wegiveblack.com to get involved.

Discounts on hotel accommodations are being offered for a limited time through partnerships with Lord Baltimore, The Royal Sonesta, Days Inn, Renaissance Baltimore, and Tru by Hilton. More information can be found on the website at www.vegansoulfest.com. The organizers are seeking financial and product sponsors who share in the vision and mission of Vegan SoulFest.
