Vegan Festival Favourites!

Summer is here, which means festival season is upon us!  If you’re heading to a festival this summer, your mind may only be focused on all the amazing acts you are heading to see – but it’s important to remember to go prepared, and bring plenty of snacks to get you through the day!

We all know that festivals can be a bit... behind, when it comes to providing vegan food but there’s no need to panic as we have carefully curated a handy little guide for you, filled with vegan festival snack ideas!

Crisps & Popcorn

Crisps are the perfect snack for munching in between sets at festivals! Just find a nice patch of grass, sit yourself down to soak up the sunshine, and enjoy. Here at TVK, we love a nice thick crisp - perfect with a nice cold drink of your choice.

Or perhaps you prefer to watch sets from a distance. If so, why not pick up some vegan popcorn to help you enjoy the spectacle?

Wraps & Sandwiches

Fancy something a bit more substantial? No problem!

Check out our incredible vegan “Egg Mayonnaise” sandwich filling recipe, and slap it between two slices of tasty thick bread for a perfect snack to help you get over that mid-day festival hump!

If that doesn’t sound up your street, then check out this vegan recipe for a mouth-watering tempeh BLT with spicy mayo!

Snack Bars

If you love to really let loose and get involved in the crowd at festivals, then there will come a point where your energy will dip, and you’ll need a pick me up.

However, you have plenty of bands to see, and crowds to enjoy, so you won’t want to have to take time out of your hectic schedule to eat – which makes snack bars the perfect snack for you!

An ideal energy booster that can be whipped out of your pocket and enjoyed on the go. Bonus points if you can eat one whilst moshing!

Chocolate & Sweets

It wouldn’t be a proper festival without a sweet treat to enjoy, and whilst it may be difficult to find vegan sweets and chocolates at festivals, it’s never been easier to buy vegan chocolate and sweets online!

We have an incredible range here at TVK, so have a browse and see what tickles your fancy! Whether you’re after some vegan marshmallows, chocolate-covered peanuts, or just a good ol’ slab of vegan chocolate – we’ve got them all.

Healthy Options

Festivals don’t have to be filled with junk food and snacks if you don’t want them to be! Nuts and dried fruits provide you with a quick and convenient energy boost – without the added sugars and calories.

Hummus and some soft white bread are also a perfect pairing for a nice relaxing chill under the sun – we can’t guarantee the sun though I’m afraid!

Camping Essentials

If you’re one of the hardcore who plan to make your festival trip more of a weekend thing, rather than a day thing, it’s essential that you make sure you are stocked up on ready-to-eat vegan meals!

Beans on toast is a campfire classic, but if you fancy adding a bit of je ne sais quoi to your meal and being the envy of your campmates then why not opt for a Thai green curry , or a nice Bolognese?

Whether you’re a party animal, or a health-conscious individual who’s just down to chill, there are hundreds of delicious plant-based snacks out there to help make your summer festival trip one to remember!
