With a buzzing vegan and foodie scene, the Peterborough Vegan Market runs on the Cathedral Square, by the Peterborough Cathedral, right in the centre of the city, on several Saturdays throughout the year.

Organisers, who work with the city council to put on the events, say they often see 1,000-1,300 visitors making a special trip on the day in addition to the high footfall the city centre experiences on a typical Saturday.
