Election Day just got a whole lot sweeter, thanks to Krispy Kreme. To mark the occasion, the doughnut and coffeehouse chain is giving out free doughnuts to all guests on Tuesday, November 5th. With no purchase necessary, it’s the perfect treat to encourage Americans to head to the polls and exercise their civic duty to vote. Keep reading to learn more about Krispy Kreme’s Election Day promotion.
Why Is Krispy Kreme Giving Away Free Doughnuts on Election Day?
Krispy Kreme is honoring the spirit of civic engagement by offering a free Original Glazed doughnut to all guests on Election Day, with a limit of one per person at participating locations across the United States. As Americans head to the polls to vote, Krispy Kreme hopes to share in the pride and excitement of this important day.
“Participating in our democracy should be celebrated! So, we’re happy to sweeten everyone’s day with free Original Glazed doughnuts on Election Day,” said Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer for Krispy Kreme, in a statement.
How To Get Your Free Doughnut from Krispy Kreme on Election Day
Ready to snag your complimentary doughnut from Krispy Kreme on Election Day? Simply visit any participating Krispy Kreme location on November 5th, and ask for your free Original Glazed doughnut—no purchase required. You won’t even need to show your “I Voted” sticker as proof of voting. In fact, Krispy Kreme will be handing out “I Voted” stickers at select stores while supplies last, so if you voted early, you don’t have to save your sticker for the big day. Just swing by, and you’ll receive a fresh, complimentary Original Glazed doughnut.
In return for this delicious giveaway, all Krispy Kreme asks is that you take the time to vote and, if you’re so inclined, share your Election Day moment on social media by tagging #KrispyKreme with a photo of your doughnut to show off your civic pride.
As Election Day approaches, many brands are joining in on the fun by offering similar promotions. This trend not only encourages voter participation but also fosters a sense of community and celebration around this vital civic duty.
Krispy Kreme Keeps the Sweet Treats Coming
Krispy Kreme’s Election Day promotion is just the latest from a series of doughnut giveaways from the brand this year. In March, the company celebrated Super Tuesday—playfully dubbed “Super Twosday”—by giving away two free Original Glazed doughnuts to each person as part of another voting promotion.
Recently, on October 31st, anyone in costume received a Halloween treat: a free doughnut to entice them into Krispy Kreme stores. This offer coincided with the Ghostbusters x Krispy Kreme collaboration, which featured special treats like the Ghostbusters Cookies N’ Creme Doughnut, Slimer Doughnut, Ecto-Sprinkled Doughnut, and Chocolate Iced with Halloween Sprinkles.
