Vida Vegan Conference Ticket Giveaway
As I mentioned a while ago, I’m attending the 2013 Vida Vegan Conference (VVC) in Portland this May. What is the VVC, you might be wondering? Founded by the lovely Janessa, Michele, and Jess it’s 3 days of seminars, talks, food, fun (duh), and exhibitors all with a vegan twist. And of course, we’ll be prowling the vegan-friendly streets of Portland along the way. This will be my first time visiting Portland and as you can expect I am beyond excited. I might pee my pants actually.
When is it? The VVC 2013 will be held on Friday-Sunday, May 24-26, 2013.
Where? Portland Art Museum, 1219 Southwest Park Avenue Portland, OR 97205
Is there a schedule break down for each day? Why I’m so happy you asked. For the complete VVC schedule see here.
Recently, a reader named Grace contacted me explaining that she bought a ticket to this year’s VVC, but is sadly not able to attend anymore. And because of her super generous heart she’s offering the ticket to one lucky reader! Yes, you have the chance of winning a ticket valued at $280.00 for 3 days of conference fun!

I would love to go to this conference.
thank you Melaney

I would absolutely live to go to this conference! I live in Portland so I have already been debating about going! I’m also a registered dietitian and so the more info I can get n vegan diets is super helpful! I personally eat mostly vegetarian and counsel lots of my patients to eat less meat! Thanks for the giveaway!
Wow Portland I have heard so much of this great place. (mostly thru portladia show :))
But I would love to attend this conference! Im in the cold, high gas prices, high taxes IL.
This is amazing! I’m going to BC on May 29th (I live in Halifax), but if I win, I could make a pitstop in Portland on the way :)
I would love to go to this conference, and if I got the chance, Angela, I would probably be just as excited as you! Thank you for the opportunity!
That is so neat! I live in PDX and would love to be able to go.
Hi Angela, I love you blog, it has inspired my entire family to go vegetarian and hoping to go completely vegan by next year!!!! Our favorite recipes are your Mac and Cheeze sauce and oatmeal bars. I would absolutely love to go to this conference, we live in Idaho so just a hop skip and a jump to Portland!
I live in Washington so could easy drive down to the convention. I’ve found it difficult to meet other vegan friends, so going to this would be a wonderful opportunity for me!
omg i would die to get to attend!
I live in Portland and I would LOVE to go to a convention like this! In the past year and a half I have been eating less meat overall and more vegan/veggie options and would love to check things out!
I would love to go. I’ve always wanted to visit Portland.
OMG!!! I have so been wanting to go to this conference…and I am even within driving distance from WA. Please please PLEASE pick me!
I’d love to go!
I would love to attend this conference – I am a relatively new vegan and am a sponge for new information, recipes, and ideas. I would expand my knowledge exponentially, and in turn, educate my readers. What a fantastic opportunity!
How awesome!! I’ve lived in Portland all my life, been a faithful reader of your blog for almost three years, and have been living the vegan lifestyle for two and a half! I would be thrilled to attend something like this!
i would LOVE to attend the conference! i have been holding off on purchasing a ticket because of the price, but it’s truly something i want to be a part of ;)
I would love, love, love to attend the Vida Vegan Conference. You have inspired me and my roommate to go vegan (I am still working on my parents…) and we love the vegan lifestyle, especially your recipes!! I am graduating from college in the beginning of May, so I think that the conference and trip would be a great way to celebrate :)
Thanks!! Maggie
I would LOVE to attend the Vida Vegan Conference, especially it being in Portland!
I would love to attend this! What a great opportunity!
I would love to go! And I’m right in Portland…perfect. (I alas hadn’t heard of it, so thanks for the heads up!)
I would love to go! It sounds like an amazing weekend.
I was planning a trip to Seattle and Portland in May! Please count me in :)
