Vancouver, BC – February 24
Get ready to unleash your inner musician! COBS Bread is inviting Canadians to celebrate their musical roots and enjoy a delicious free treat on March 1st during the Hot Cross Buns Day event.
Just bring your recorder or any instrument you love, play the classic tune "Hot Cross Buns," and receive a freshly baked hot cross bun!
A Nostalgic Celebration of Music and Community
Playing the recorder is a rite of passage for many Canadians, often sparking fond memories of elementary school music lessons. COBS Bread is encouraging everyone to dust off their instruments and partake in this unique celebration that honors music, childhood memories, and, of course, the beloved hot cross buns.
"Hot cross buns are a cherished favorite at COBS Bread, and we wanted to find a joyful way to celebrate them while tapping into a bit of nostalgia," says Peter Furnish, VP of Marketing at COBS Bread. "We love seeing our customers bring joy into our bakeries through music and fun, all while enjoying a free bun!"
How It Works: Play and Enjoy
On March 1st, head to your nearest COBS Bread bakery, play your rendition of "Hot Cross Buns," and receive a hand-crafted hot cross bun -- baked from scratch! The offer is available on a first-come, first-play basis while supplies last, making it an exciting opportunity for families and friends to join the fun together.
Whether you're a parent reliving your glory days or a child eager to showcase your skills, this event promises laughter and joy for everyone involved. Don't forget to share your performance highlights on social media by tagging @COBSBread on Instagram and TikTok with the hashtag #HotCrossBunsDay.
