This year’s Plant Powered Show will be held at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) from Friday 27 to Sunday 29 May – a not-to-be-missed three-day in-person event with an exciting virtual component.
The Plant Powered Show brings the plant-based, vegetarian, vegan and conscious living revolution to a mainstream audience. The hugely successful inaugural show, under the name The Festive Vegan & Plant Powered Show, took place online in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic and featured an extraordinary line-up of local and international chefs.
Aimed at those looking to live and enjoy a healthier, more conscious and sustainable lifestyle with a smaller environmental footprint, the show features professional chefs, celebrity cooks and rising stars presenting live cooking demos, diverse and compelling talks by the health and wellness experts, premium and interactive experiences, exclusive industry networking and a marketplace of plant-based food, drink and lifestyle products.
“Consumers want to live more consciously and be more mindful of the animals we share the planet with,” said event producer Heidi Warricket.
“At the same time, chefs and foodies want to be inspired to create delicious meals with exciting new ingredients. It’s a food revolution. After a postponement due to the pandemic, we are starting live this year in Cape Town.”
The Plant Powered Show also announced FoodForward SA as its official CSI partner, the largest food redistribution organisation in South Africa. The organisation connects a world of excess to a world of need by recovering quality edible surplus food from the consumer goods supply chain and distributing it to community organisations that serve the poor.
Tickets for the show cost R120 (online) and R250 at the door, and goes on sale online at Quicket on Tuesday 1 March. For more details, go to https://plantpoweredshow.com.
