IDA's 2nd annual World GO VEGAN Week will take place this year from October 27th to 29th, providing vegans an excellent opportunity to help family, friends and co-workers learn more about how a plant-based diet can improve their health, alleviate animal suffering and preserve the environment. World GO VEGAN Week allows vegans to share their most deeply held values with others - whether family, friends, co-workers or the general public - by making personal connections and taking action.

During World GO VEGAN Week, IDA will partner with restaurants across the country to offer diners discounted meatless meals and specials. Last year, more than 30 restaurants offered meat eaters half-price vegan meals when dining with a vegan paying full-price. Restaurants also offered World GO VEGAN Week Specials - delicious dishes made without meat, dairy, eggs or other animal products. Many IDA members therefore used World GO VEGAN Week as an opportunity to give family, friends and co-workers a chance to enjoy some healthy, great-tasting food.

This year, we hope that even more restaurants will participate in World GO VEGAN Week so that omnivores everywhere can experience how good vegan food can be. With discounted meals and World Go Vegan Day Specials highlighting the versatility of plant-based foods—from vegetables and grains to mock meats and cheeses—World GO VEGAN Week offers people an opportunity to discover a whole new way of enjoying food.
