Created last year as a pandemic safe event, here we are again still dealing with Covid, so Planned2Give is bringing back The Dayton Donut Fest on Tour for a second year. Kicking off Feb 11th, ticket buyers will have 11 days to visit the 11 participating donut shops and pick up sweet treats. Buy your tickets online and they will be mailed to you, so order them now to make sure they get to you in time. Tips from festival veterans last year include arriving early- the best flavors sell out quickly. Get a box and collect several donuts for a taste test later at home and finally remember, you don’t have to eat them all at once- you can spread your visits out. Festival goers are encouraged to share pictures of their adventure using the hashtag #DaytonDonutFest and there will be prizes for the favorites.
With your ticket booklet you’ll have a coupon to get up to 3 donuts from each participating vendor from Feb 11-Feb 21. Each vendor’s page will list hours for their business so you can plan your adventure.
