Rockport Maine Donut Festival: 7 Things to Know This Weekend

Know before you go!

Go nuts for donuts, for a whole weekend in Rockport!

One of the great things about Maine during the summer, is the incredible amount of food festivals throughout the state. From lobster, to red snapper hot dogs, to whoopie pies, and even Moxie, there is something for everyone! Now you can add yet another yearly tradition to this impressive list.

Rockport is home to the creator of the Donut Hole, Captain Hanson Gregory, commemorated on a plaque at the Nativity Lutheran Church in Rockport. Given this, it is a great reason for the community to come together to celebrate the weekend after National Donut Day.

The 4th Annual Rockport Donut Festival kicks off summer, on Friday, June 12th & Saturday, June 13th.

Seems like a perfect chance to take a road trip!

There will also be a parade, 5K race, food trucks, a craft beer tent, live music, and of course, lots of donuts, from a wide variety of vendors.

Best of all, admission is FREE! Find out more information on their website
