2025 Vegan Mac Cook Off

Please join us for our Ninth Annual Vegan Mac and Cheese Cook Off on Sunday, February 16, 2025 from 1pm to 3pm!! This is an annual fundraiser for Triangle Vegfest and Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge. We are back in Durham at the Armory! Join us to pick the best vegan mac in the Triangle! Admission will be $20 ahead of the event and $30 the day of. We encourage you to purchase your tickets ahead of time so we can gauge how much everyone needs to cook. WE will limit the attendance to 300 people so there might not be tickets available the day of. If you arrive late, we cannot guarantee there will be food left so make sure to arrive on time. We will have vendors at the event selling desserts, drinks, and other savory food options. The chefs will be professionals! Let's see who makes the best and if the previous year's winners take home the prizes again! We might have a few amateur chefs as well competing. You'll get a ballot and can circle your favorite and hand it in to cast your vote! One ballot per person given upon entering the event. $20/person (ahead) $30/person (door, if tickets available) $10 for kids 6-12 Free for the young ones 5 and under. We look forward to seeing you at the event! Are you a chef? Own a restaurant? Have your own business? Aspire to be a chef? $20 to enter the competition to compete to be the best in the Triangle! Rules are simple: create the best vegan mac n cheese you can and the top two will win a great prize. More detailed rules to be sent to each chef.
