Film festival with vegan menu

Is this a UK first?

The Leeds Queer Film Festival is set to run in the Northern city between March 24 and 26, 2017 at Live Art Bistro and big news for readers of this blog is the food being sold during the three day event.

Every morsel of food sold during Leeds Queer Film Festival 2017 is set to be vegan.

Great news!

Of course the main attraction is the incredible line up of shorts and feature films, including a screening of the phenomenal Academy Award-winning Moonlight, however it is wonderful to see organisers taking a fully inclusive approach to the catering.

The film festival states the following about the vegan food menu:

It’s not just an amazing programme of films this weekend, we’ve also got loads of scrummy food available.

There’s a whole heap of snacks available ALL WEEKEND including samosas, sausage rolls, pizza rolls, cakes, popcorn, sweets and pick & mix.

On SATURDAY we’re gonna be serving up hot meals including Three Bean Chili and Smoked Tofu Stew. On SUNDAY to help you recover from our Queer Dance Party the night before there’s gonna be a brunch with Sausage Buns then later on some delish Homemade Soup.

And, it’s all VEGAN

Live Art Bistro also has a bar serving alcohol, soft drinks, tea and coffee.

It’s all CASH ONLY so bring your pennies. The nearest cash point is the Shell garage just 150 yards from the venue along Regent Street.

Make a big effort to support this incredible event if you are in Leeds and have the means to do so.
