As part of the deal, Live Nation venues and festivals across the US, including all House of Blues restaurants, will feature plant-based burgers from Everything Legendary.<\/p>\n
The company was launched in 2021 and over the last 10 months, Everything Legendary\u2019s products have been placed in more than 3,000 grocery stores, including Public, Target, Safeway, Ralphs and others.<\/p>\n
Live Nation will become an equity partner in Everything Legendary after investing as part of the company\u2019s recently closed $6m (\u00a34.8m\/\u20ac5.7m) Series A funding round earlier this year. Other investors in the company include CircleUp Growth Partners, food company General Mills and American entrepreneur Mark Cuban.<\/p>\n
Over the summer, fans at a number of Live Nation festivals, amphitheatres, clubs and theatres will be able to try Everything Legendary\u2019s plant-based food options. The meat-free burgers have already been featured at Broccoli City Festival in Washington DC and will also be available at events such as Rolling Loud Miami, Hard Summer, Roots Picnic and EDC Orlando.<\/p>\n
Tom See, chief operating officer, Venue Nation, said: \u201cFans create lifelong memories enjoying live music, and\u00a0everything\u00a0they enjoy while at the show has the potential to make that memory even better.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy partnering with\u00a0Everything\u00a0Legendary\u00a0we\u2019re excited to bring plant-based items to our events so fans have even more sustainable options to choose from.\u201d<\/p>\n
Duane \u2018Myko\u2019 Cheers, Everything Legendary\u2019s co-founder, added: \u201cWe\u2019re on a mission to not just win over taste buds but also eating habits, encouraging people across the country to adopt healthier alternatives, and I\u2019ve been especially proud that we\u2019ve helped power this movement in the Black community where veganism is on the rise.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith the investment and partnership of Live Nation we\u2019ll be serving up our amazing flavour to millions of music fans.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
