The days of no vegan options at music festivals are a thing of the past!
The Cruel World music festival is set to take place at Brookside at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA this weekend (May 14-15). Featuring performances by popular artists like Morrissey, Bauhaus, DEVO, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Psychedelic Furs, Violent Femmes, and The Church, this event attracts music lovers from far and wide. What we’re most excited about, however, has nothing to do with the musicians—although they’re rad. This year’s Cruel World music festival food lineup is entirely vegetarian and vegan! Here’s the list of vendors.
Avocadamama
Vegan mac ‘n’ cheese? Yes, please! Whether you like your mac loaded with toppings or simple and creamy, Avocadamama has it all.
