Here is a round-up of some popular and free to attend vegan events and street markets taking place in England this month.
Vegan markets have become established events, full of emerging entrepreneurs and a buzzing, diverse crowd.
They are the epicentre for sourcing eco-friendly, handcrafted products and vegan food, of course.
These markets are an opportunity to be outdoors, meet people safely, collaborate and share good vibes.
Please check with the organisers to confirm that the event is going ahead before you get there.
