VegfestUK has announced that Bristol Vegan Fayre will return to Document in the heart of the city in 2026.
This year’s event takes place on June 20, marking the summer solstice weekend. It will be attended by up to 100 independent traders, and will also feature two talk rooms, a DJ booth, and an outdoor stage with live music and comedy.
Traders will include artisan plant-based food producers, charities and campaigns focused on the environment and animal rights, and suppliers of vegan bodycare, clothing, and accessories. Guests will be able to discover a host of information about the benefits of plant-based lifestyles.
Several vegan authors will also be present; these will include John King, who is the author of The Football Factory and a book about animal laboratories, Peekaboo Bosh.

Up to 2,000 visitors expected
The announcement comes after VegfestUK revealed that it would be hosting Vegfest Free, described as the UK’s largest free vegan festival, in Birmingham on April 25.
“My first festival in 1981 aged 18 was at Stonehenge on the solstice, and I fell in love with festivals then,” said organiser Tim Barford. “Bristol Vegan Fayre effectively traces its roots back to Stonehenge Free Festival, and it’s a pleasure to be hosting Bristol Vegan Fayre on the summer solstice this year. And with no Glastonbury in 2026, there’s an emphasis on entertainment, music, and comedy at our event, which is set to attract up to 2,000 people this year.”
Bristol Vegan Fayre will be open from 10 am to 6 pm at Document, located at 30 Pennywell Rd, St Jude’s, Bristol BS5 0TH.
