Celebrate a decade of plant-powered living at Lancaster VegFest 2026, marking its 10-year anniversary with a vibrant, female-run festival at Buchanan Park. Held from noon to 5 p.m. on June 6 and 7, 2026, this much-loved, well-attended event is free to the public, with donations at the door supporting Lancaster Farm Sanctuary (LFS). VIP tickets are also available, offering early access at 11 a.m. both days along with exclusive perks.

Festivalgoers can explore more than 100 plant-based vendors, enjoy yoga throughout the weekend, visit the beer garden and listen to live music on the main stage. Saturday at 2 p.m., LFS takes the spotlight, showcasing the Lancaster-based sanctuary’s work in providing animal rescue, lifelong care and education since its founding in 2017. The Veg-Talk stage features chef demos, speakers, animal rights discussions and more, while children’s activities—including the beloved Book Fairy—make it fun for all ages. An organic farmers’ market from Lancaster Farm Fresh Cooperative offers fresh produce and ready-to-eat local fruits.

VegFest also brings back Vegan Restaurant Week, highlighting plant-based offerings at participating restaurants across Lancaster City. Organizer Courtney Kokus shares, “This is a way to engage the community, making Lancaster a more vegan-friendly place.” With the festival ending daily at 5 p.m., attendees are encouraged to continue their experience throughout the weekend.
