FAT Tuesday Donut & Beer Walk

March 1 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$20

Who doesn’t LOVE Donuts and Beer?! Come get “FAT” with us this Fat Tuesday!

Channel your inner Homer Simpson, wear some stretchy pants and join us in historic downtown Middletown for our FAT TUESDAY DONUT & BEER WALK! After checking in at the Pendleton Art Center, you will walk to different shops, eateries and establishments to get different donuts, lovingly prepared from our very own Central Pastry Shop! Each “Donut Stop” will have a specially selected beer pairing available for purchase (not included in ticket price, sold separately at each location). Donut in one hand……paired beer in another…….does it get any better?! (The Downtown Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area (DORA) will be in effect, allowing you to sip and stroll between stops! Even better news? A DORA wristband, which allows you to do so, will be included in your ticket price!)

As an added bonus, there will be a “Donut Scavenger Hunt”. Find the hidden “donuts” in Downtown businesses and redeem your passport back at the PAC before you leave for a FREE custom event keychain and be entered to win a FAT Tuesday Raffle basket. We can’t promise you will burn more calories than you consume, but it will be a fun-filled night for donut & beer lovers!

This event serves as a DORA distrtict fundraiser to benefit our local DORA businesses! So by supporting this event you are supporting local!

How it Works: Check-In will begin at 6 p.m. at ThePendleton, 1105 Central Ave, in downtown Middletown. It is here that you will trade your ticket for your donut tasting map (and of course, a coveted DONUT NECKLACE & Mardi Gras fun!). Donut tastings (and beer pairings) will be located inside various local businesses & buildings throughout downtown Middletown. Beer pairings will be paid directly at the stop ($2 each) or full glasses will be available for purchase as well. There is a bit of walking involved, so make sure you wear comfortable shoes, but have no fear- this is a donut & beer event, not a fitness event! The hours of the event are 6 p.m. to 9 p.m and you may check-in at anytime during this time.

Tickets: Tickets are $20 and include all locally made donuts, tasting passport, donut necklace & souvenir if you complete your passport!

FAQs:

Is there a minimum age requirements for the event?

This event is a donut and beer pairing event- and since it is Mardi Gras, it will be adult focused. Not into beer? No problem- just buy a ticket which gets you all of the donut stops- as well as the bonus freebies if you complete your passport! Please bring valid ID with you.

What are my transportation/parking options?

There are multiple free parking lots in and around downtown Middletown. Event check in is at The Pendleton Art Center 1105 Central Ave. This is also where you will END to get your souvenir with your completed passport.. When you complete the walk and scavenger hunt, you will return to the Sorg to exchange your completed passport for your gift to take home.

Is this event rain, snow, or shine? Donuts & wine taste delicious in any weather so the walk will go on rain, snow or sun!

What beers will be offered? We have specifically paired donuts with unique, craft beers that you likely don’t have the opportunity to taste every day. Watch the facebook event page for more details as the event gets closer!

Where do we start? Check in is at The Pendleton Art Center 1105 Central Ave. This is also where you will END to get your souvenir with your completed passport.
