MNL MNL The Fair way to learn how to lead a better life

By EMMA DUKES

Liverpool’s favourite vegan fair, Live A Better Life (LABL), is coming to Lark Lane next month.

The fair, which offers vegan food, health and beauty products, as well as live entertainment, will be held at The Old Police Station on Saturday November 13.

LABL are well-known for running vegan fairs at locations across Liverpool since 2013, including St George’s Hall, and will also be hosting a Christmas fair in December.

Each event brings in around 3,000 people and the Lark Lane couldn’t be better, with the lane having a reputation across Merseyside for quirky, indepedent businesses, and lots of vegan options.

Event manager Emma Cox said “We are delighted to be running our second fair on Lark Lane.

“There are a growing number of people in Liverpool who are vegan, vegetarian or on their way to plantbased diet and this event is ideal for people to find more inspiration.

“Showcasing the best vegan food and natural products in Liverpool, the Live A Better Life event will be a great day out.”

Treats up for grabs include burgers, pies, noodles and cakes, all made completely plant-based and the fair includes 30 independent stalls, including Sweetiecake, serving homemade baked goods.

Cosmetics and toiletries will be available from stalls such as Tropic and The Soap Factory, and spiritual items such as crystals can be purchased from Luna Moon.

Entertainment will be provided by Fantasy, a Liverpool based company known for performances inspired by the Golden Era.

Fantasy is directed by Kahli Morris, who is also lead performer and choreographer for the majority of shows. Kahli is an LJMU graduate and she also made it to the finals of Ms Galaxy Liverpool 2021.

LABL vegan fair and other upcoming vegan events in Liverpool may be great places to start Christmas shopping, with people becoming increasingly aware of the environment and animal testing.

All products at LABL events are organic, fairtrade, vegan, cruelty free and ecological and purchases support local, independent businesses. Entry to the fair is £1 per person and free for under 10s and the event runs runs from 10am-4pm.
