# Building the Event Program

A great variety of activities can be offered during a veg fest event. By building a diverse program with interesting and engaging activities, you will attract more of the community to attend. Look at examples of what other veg fests have chosen to offer. Below is a list of common activities you will see on the program:

* Speakers and book signings
* Cooking demonstrations
* Door prizes and raffles
* Movie screenings (for guidance on screening PlantPure Nation, refer to the [Action Sheet: PPN Film Screening](http://plantpurecommunities.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/ActionSheet_PPN-Film-Screening.pdf))
* Yoga and other fitness sessions
* Kids activities
* Live Music

Once the schedule is finalized, print the program so it can be distributed to the attendees on the day of the event. Typically, attendees like to pick up a hard copy of the program at the event in order to check the schedule of activities, see a map of the venue, review information about sponsors, and read speakers’ bios. The program should also include a note of thanks, acknowledging key people involved in the event.
