Eat yo veggies at the VEGGIE festival

Your mother used to say it: just eat your vegetables. That is also the motto of the VEGGIE festival, taking place on 15, 16 and 17 June at the NDSM wharf. Vegetables deserve to take center stage and can really be incredibly delicious. Especially in the sunshine, with a drink in your hand.

You won’t get soggy Brussels sprouts or bland cauliflower at the VEGGIE festival. You’ll get trendy veggie burgers, all kinds of mezzes and tapas, barbecue dishes, tacos and cake. Cake, yes. Chefs will be there, there will be live music and there will be gin and tonics.

Three days of celebration

Friday is all about the VrijMiBo. We quote the organizers: “Liquid dinner? Why not?”. They get it. You can also taste the world’s first plant-based steak.

Saturday is a party all day long. Naturally, with live music. Will you go for the barbecue by Smokey Goodness or a burger from the Vegan Burger Brothers? Sunday is family day. Or, as we call Sunday: hangover day. VEGGIE festival provides entertainment for the kids, while you retreat to the ‘Guilty pleasures’ corner to work off yesterday’s hangover with yet another juicy burger.
