About World Plant-Based Burger Day
World Plant-Based Burger Day is a creator-led food observance held on October 10.
VeganBurg launched the day on October 10, 2020 as part of its tenth-anniversary celebration, giving this observance unusually clear creator and inaugural-date provenance.
Why World Plant-Based Burger Day matters
The observance promotes plant-based burgers as a food category and originated as a VeganBurg campaign rather than a government or intergovernmental holiday.
People can participate by trying or making a plant-based burger while treating nutrition, environmental and product-performance claims as separate questions that depend on ingredients, evidence and individual needs.
History of World Plant-Based Burger Day
VeganBurg announced World Plant-Based Burger Day on October 10, 2020 while celebrating the company’s tenth anniversary.
The creator described the launch as an annual day intended to support its broader plant-based-burger mission.
The reviewed evidence does not establish one exclusive current global facilitator in 2026, so later stewardship is left unresolved.
