Vegan Camp Out is an annual camping festival in the UK featuring music, comedy, talks, health & wellbeing activities, and various workshops. Launched in 2016, Vegan Camp Out has been held at various different venues in the UK, and an additional festival weekend also ran in Australia in 2023.[1]
The festival focuses on veganism, environmentalism and animal rights. Most performers are publicly vegan, typically including prominent influencers, activists, comedians, and musicians. A variety of all-vegan food vendors is a central feature to the event, the list of vendors usually being billed as a 'food line-up'.[2]
History[edit]
The festival was founded in 2016 by Jordan Martin.[3]
Vegan Campout Festival has received sponsorship from Viva! since 2017.[4]
The festival has changed locations multiple times, usually due to difficulties in securing a venue which is not linked to industries which use or exploit animals; some backlash was received after the festival was hosted at venues with links to farming, horse racing, dog shows, or hunting.[5]
2016[edit]
16-17 July 2016 - Riddings Wood Caravan and Camping Park, Derbyshire.[6]
The first Vegan Camp Out event. Around 400 people attended. Entertainment was provided by a DJ, and one food vendor was present.[7]
2017[edit]
17-19 August 2017 - National Watersports Centre, Nottingham.[7]
The first Vegan Campout event to receive sponsorship from Viva! The festival now included activism speakers, yoga workshops, live music and merchandise stalls. Multiple food vendors were hired and around 2,700 people attended.[7]
2018[edit]
17-19 August - Newark Showground, Nottinghamshire.[7]
Around 5,000 people attended.[7]
Main acts included Simon Amstell, Jme, Macka B, Neal Barnard, Melanie Joy, and Heather Mills.[7]
2019[edit]
30 August - 01 September - Newark Showground, Nottinghamshire.[7]
Around 7,500 people attended.[7]
Main acts included Earthling Ed, Matt Pritchard, Shikari Sound System, and Akala.[7]
2020 (cancelled)[edit]
Main festival[edit]
Due to take place: 21-23 August 2020 - Newark Showground, Nottinghamshire.[8]
Festival organisers initially held off from cancelling the 2020 festival despite the COVID-19 lockdown regulations, due to speculation within the events industry that restrictions may have been eased by the time the festival was due to take place. The event was eventually cancelled on 08 June 2020.[9] A crowdfunding campaign was launched to help mitigate financial losses incurred by the cancellation of the 2020 event.[10]
'Back to Basics'[edit]
Due to take place: 25-26 September 2020 - Riddings Wood Caravan and Camping Park Derbyshire[8]
Following the cancelation of the main event, organisers announced they would be holding a smaller version of the festival, 'Back to Basics', with a lower attendance capacity of 1,000 and without stages for live entertainment.[8] This followed updated restrictions which permitted licences to be granted for large organised gatherings under certain conditions, although social distancing regulations still applied and immediate groups were still limited to ‘bubbles’ of no more than 6 people. After the coming under public scrutiny, the licence application was subsequently withdrawn under pressure after around 50 objections were raised by local residents of the Amber Valley area, including Derbyshire County Council’s public health advisor.[8] The council then used emergency powers to block from the application from being resubmitted.[11]
Most of the planned line-up was postponed to the next year.[12]
2021[edit]
20-22 August 2021 - Newark Showground, Nottinghamshire.[7]
Around 11,750 people attended. The 'food line-up' had expanded to include 45 different vendors.[7]
Main acts included Russell Brand, BOSH!, Chris Packham, Joey Carbstrong, Benjamin Zephaniah, P Money, and Cosmic Skeptic.[7]
2022[edit]
15-18 July 2022 - Stanford Hall, Leicestershire.[7]
Around 12,000 people attended.[7]
Main acts included Earthling Ed, Evanna Lynch, Simon Amstell, Lucy Watson, JME, Gaz Oakley, and Bimini Bon-Boulash.[7]
The festival took place during a heatwave and a lack of water supply became an issue throughout the weekend, for which the organisers apologised on their official Facebook page.
2023 - UK[edit]
28-31 July 2023 - Bicester Heritage, Oxfordshire.[13]
Main acts included Romesh Ranganathan, Bosh!, Joey Carbstrong, Sam Ryder, Patrick Baboumian, Jody Marsh, and Tash Peterson.[13]
Cosmic Skeptic was originally listed as one of the main acts[14], but was subsequently dropped after releasing a statement renouncing veganism and affirming that they had stopped cutting animal products from their diet.[15][16]
Some criticism was received after reports of vandalism in the local area - specifically, graffiti with the words 'go vegan' appearing in multiple places around Bicester.[17]
2023 - Australia[edit]
24-26 November, Darkinjung / Glenworth Valley, New South Wales.[1]
Main acts included Earthling Ed, Ali Tabrizi, Patrick Baboumian, Nimai Delgado, and Tash Peterson.[1]

Miscellaneous[edit]

Michalski is the founder of Vegan Founded, a "nonprofit, community interest company", which provides a service to certify people and businesses (as opposed to individual products) as being 100 per cent vegan.[21]
