These Terms and Conditions apply to all registrations made through Eventbrite for the 2026 FOOD DAY FESTIVAL (the “Event”) produced by Simply Vegan Project DBA SoCal VegFest, Animal Alliance Network DBA Plant Based Treaty LA, and their affiliates (collectively, “Event Management”).

By registering for a free Eventbrite ticket, accepting transfer of a ticket, presenting a ticket (digital or printed) at check‑in, or attending the Event, you (the “Bearer”) acknowledge that you have been provided with a link to these Terms and Conditions and agree to be bound by them.

1. Free registration; check‑in and redemption

  1. The Event is free to attend. Eventbrite tickets are used solely for:
    • Free registration and capacity management;
    • Check‑in at the Event; and
    • Redemption of free samples, coupons, and/or special gifts (collectively, “Benefits”), as determined by Event Management in its sole discretion.
  2. Possession of a ticket does not guarantee the availability of any particular Benefit. Benefits are limited, may vary, and are subject to change or substitution at any time without notice.
