[add_single_eventon id=”23610″ ev_uxval=”3″ ]

The Bacon, Blues & Brews event is taking over Founder’s Park in Queen Creek, Arizona from noon – 9 p.m. on Saturday, November 3.

The family-friendly celebration provides hours of craft beer tastings, blues music, and a conglomeration of unique bacon-based dishes from chefs all around the Phoenix area. The bacon possibilities will seem endless with bacon wrapped burritos, bacon tacos, and bacon wrapped lobster being a few items you can expect to devour.

General Admission is $10 each, but the real deal comes with the Hog Wild VIP ticket for $90 per person. Kid Zone tickets are available to keep the family busy and anyone under 12 years old is allowed in for free.

The Hog Wild VIP ticket includes two bacon flights, six drink tickets, water, private restrooms, and interactive activities.

General Admission will get you into the event, and any food or drinks can be purchased separately.

More than 15 breweries are sharing the goods throughout the day, and Tucson’s very own Barrio Brewing Company will be pouring some favorites, as well.

Matt Sterner

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.
