This week the city is hosting what is being billed as the biggest vegan food festival in the world. The three-day event in Sarona Park in the heart of the city boasts 100 food stalls. The 100% free event kicked off on Tuesday and runs from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. (local time.)

The festival is organized by Vegan Friendly, Israel's largest vegan organization, which is also responsible for certifying vegan products in the country. VF has partnered with the Tel Aviv Municipality for the event and organizers said they expect attendance to exceed 50,000 people.

i24NEWS reporter Sarah Chlala was on the scene Tuesday night and talked to one of the participants who wanted to come despite not being vegan.

"I just wanted to try the food and it is really nice," Ellie said, adding that she is vegetarian.
