London, KY- Honey Bun Day, London’s sweetest day of the year, will be held on Saturday, October 19.

London will host the annual Honey Bun Day on Saturday, October 19, celebrating the thousands of jobs supported by the Honey Bun in London since 1953. The event is sponsored by Wellcare and Flowers Foods, and organized by London Tourism & Parks and London Downtown.

Honey Bun Day will be celebrated all over town at restaurants, shops, the London Community Center, and Town Center Park in downtown London. Special events include an Arts & Makers Market, live music, food trucks, a Taste the Buns Honey Bun Food Challenge, a Truck Show on Main Street, and will culminate with an attempt to set a record for the most people eating a honey bun simultaneously. In the days leading up to Honey Bun Day, local restaurants and eateries will feature special menu items made with honey buns.

Honey Bun Day Saturday, October 19
London Community Center
9am-1pm Honeybun Brunch
9am-4pm Art & Maker’s Market
Town Center Park
4pm Live Music & Food Trucks
5pm Taste the Buns Challenge – Prize Package of $1,000
7pm Record Attempt - Grand Prize $1,000
Main Street
3pm Main Street Closes from 4th Street - 9 Street
5pm CP Auto Invasion Truck Show

The highlight of the day will be an attempt to set a record for the most people eating a honey bun at the same time. Participants in the record attempt will vie for a $1,000 prize package to be drawn at random. Each participant will be given a numbered card and winning numbers will be chosen at random. Additionally, all folks who visit the Arts & Makers Market at the London Community Center will be given a bonus card, increasing their odds of winning! More specific information will be released as the event approaches on www.HoneyBunDay.com.

This year, the event is pleased to announce Wellcare of Kentucky as a sponsor of festivities! Jeffery Humble, manager for the sales channel at Wellcare of Kentucky, says, "Wellcare is delighted to give back to the community, celebrate the story of the Honey Bun, and offer people the chance to participate in a fun record attempt!"

The Honey Bun has been a staple at the Flowers Foods Bakery in London since 1953. The sweet smell of honey buns and other baked goods from Flowers often envelops downtown London, providing a sensory link to a story that dates back decades with the Griffin family.

Formerly known as the Griffin Pie Company, Flowers Foods has employed thousands of people over the years and currently employs more than 600 people at its bakery on East 4th Street. The facility produces nearly 3 million pounds of honey buns, donuts, donut sticks, and fried pies every week on nine production lines. The company reports that its three honey bun lines can produce almost 60,000 honey buns per hour, totaling about 10 million honey buns per week. Additionally, its four donut lines can churn out approximately 336,000 donuts per hour when running at full capacity.
