South Florida is getting its very first all-vegan outdoor night market complete with plant-based bites, products, and more!
On Saturday, July 17, South Florida’s first-ever vegan outdoor night market is happening in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Veg Night Out will be hosted in Fort Lauderdale’s trendy MASS District from 6-10pm and will feature a wide variety of vegan food, craft products, and entertainment.
South Florida’s Vegan Community
Veg Night Out was created in partnership by Sean Russell, founder of SoFlo Vegans, and Melissa Guzman, owner of The Caribe Vegan. The goal of the vegan outdoor night market is to showcase the collective power of the vegan community and to bring together the South Florida crowd to enjoy the best of the region’s growing plant-based scene. The MASS District also operates as one of the fastest growing arts neighborhoods and is a hub for the city’s vegan community.
Veg Night Out sponsors and vendors include plant-based brands such as Hodo Foods, Sayblee, and Anny’s Bread Factory, as well as Seed Food and Wine, and PureHoney Magazine, who are both supporting the event.
SoFlo Vegans
Founded by media producer and community organizer Sean Russell, SoFlo Vegans is a South Florida-based platform that offers resources, articles, videos, and podcasts for those who are curious about a plant-based diet or a vegan lifestyle. SoFlo Vegans is also open to businesses that want to explore promotional opportunities.
The Caribe Vegan
Owned and operated by Melissa Guzman in Miami, Florida, The Caribe Vegan food truck operates as both a food truck and restaurant, and will soon launch its very own vegan sauce line. Guzman also launched Vegan Village in Miami last year and, after a successful run, decided to team up with SoFlo Vegans to create Veg Night Out.
