If you are vegan and missed networking with fellow vegans in a community, here is a chance. On April 25, Plantarium Vegan Bazaar and Earth Bound are coming together to present Earth Bound 2.0 at Phoenix Arena, Hyderabad. Visitors can explore a wide range of offerings — from indulgent plant-based versions of everyday favourites like biryani, burgers, cakes, and ice creams, to sustainable clothing and eco-friendly lifestyle products.
But the experience goes far beyond shopping. Designed as a 100% cruelty-free and zero-waste event, the fest reflects the same values that define a vegan bazaar — community, accessibility, and mindful living. From workshops and talks to movement practices, sound healing sessions, and music inspired by Jamaican rhythms, the fest creates a rich, multisensory experience that blends creativity with conscious living. At its core, the bazaar will feature a vibrant spread of vegan food and conscious brands, anchoring the festival in its plant-based ethos.
The first edition, held in February, drew over 1,500 visitors, highlighting the growing appetite for such spaces in the city.
Says Deepika Poornima, founder of Plantarium, “In a short span, three successful editions of the vegan bazaars have created a strong ripple within the community. Building on this momentum, the wider community — along with Plantarium as a key collaborator — came together to bring Earth Bound festival to life, which is an immersive, people-powered celebration of conscious living. The day-long, 15-hour event brings together over 30 community-led initiatives focusing on sustainability, wellness, art, and music.”
