PETA wants Rostock to rename fish festival, go vegan

nordkurier.de (German)

Animal rights organization PETA is seeking to rename Rostock's annual Fischerfest to Vischerfest, advocating for an all-vegan food selection. PETA proposed the name change, with "V" representing vegan, and offered 500 vegan sushi to the event organizers. The organization aims to replace traditional fish dishes with plant-based alternatives during the three-day festival. The Fischerfest, celebrating its 60th year, is a community event with a variety of activities. The event organizers have rejected PETA's proposal, emphasizing the festival's commitment to inclusivity and diverse food options.
