Whether you spell “doughnut” correctly or prefer the shortened version, this event is going to be pretty sweet — pun intended.
Gentle Ben’s Brewing on Main Gate Square is hosting the ever-so-tasty “Donut Bash” from 3 – 5 p.m. on Sunday, January 12.
The event, which is co-sponsored by Food + Travel, is meant to reveal some of the most popular and tasty doughnuts around, and to give everyone the opportunity to vote on their favorite. There’s going to be around 8 to 10 vendors showing off their best doughnuts, and everyone attending will get samples from each of them.
There will also be a few options for buying your tickets. General Admission is $12.50 per person, VIP is $20 (which gets you in early at 1 p.m.), Family Passes (two adults and two kids) are $40, and children can get in for $8 each.
A portion of the proceeds will benefit a selected Hospitality Fund.
Gentle Ben’s Brewing is located at 865 E. University Blvd. For more information, visit eventbrite.com.

More about MattAt 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.
