World Vegan Month 2025
To celebrate World Vegan Month, Veganizer has joined forces with dozens of Portland businesses to bring you delicious plant-based food and drink specials from November 1 to November 30. This is our third annual (and largest!) World Vegan Month dining program featuring restaurants, food carts, and popups.
Enjoy vegan specials for a cause all month long. Round up your friends and make it a restaurant crawl by visiting multiple locations for appetizers, entrees, drinks, and desserts. Collect stamps around town to complete a World Vegan Month stamp card for a chance to win gift cards.
Each participating business has selected a cause and will be donating a portion of sales from their World Vegan Month specials. Together, we will be supporting a variety of causes, including humanitarian, cultural, environmental, animal, equity and justice organizations. We invite you to learn more about the causes we have selected this year.
