On Saturday the 16th May Birmingham hosted the UK’s first ever Veggie Pride event. There were loads of veg stalls, some great entertainment, excellent food and of course - a pride parade!

These belly dancers showed that vegans can shake it with the best of them..

The Scottish Vegans were well represented:

Bloco Louco samba band and their Brazilian beats made sure the parade could be heard a mile away and added a lively fun element.
