Vegan Camp Out is an annual camping festival in the UK featuring music, comedy, talks, health & wellbeing activities, and various workshops. The festival was launched in 2016 and has been held at various different venues. An additional festival weekend also ran in Australia in 2023.

The festival focuses on veganism, environmentalism and animal rights. Performers are mostly publicly vegan, and often include prominent influencers, activists, comedians, and artists. A variety of all-vegan food vendors is a central feature to the event, and the list of vendors is usually billed as a 'food line-up'.
