Grab a chip and get ready to dip with some of Tucson’s best avocado aficionados.

Just in time for the NFL Pro Bowl, the Guacamole Bowl is kicking off at St. Philip’s Plaza from 2 – 6 p.m. on Saturday, January 27.

Once you walk through the gates you’ll be greeted with a large bag of chips to start your adventure.

From there, the fun carries on with music, more food, cold beer, and activities like a football passing challenge.

When you decide to take a breather from all of the guacamole, you can learn how to make your own by attending the guacamole and salsa making demonstrations.

General Admission tickets are $12 per person, and VIP tickets are $55.

General Admission:

  • All guacamole samples included

  • An extra bag of chips in the designated VIP seating area
  • A meal from a VIP menu
  • One cold Modelo Especial
  • A shot of Cazadores Tequila
  • Guacamole Bowl event t-shirt

A total of 12 chefs will be offering 12 bowls of guacamole, and you’ll have the chance to sample the new Corona Premier for free before its available in stores.

With a deal like this, you’re bound to scream “holy guacamole” at the top of your lungs before finishing your last chip.

Saint Philip’s Plaza is located at 4280 N. Campbell Ave.  For more information and to purchase your tickets, visit azguacamole.com.

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
