They've been a staple in Buffalo for decades, and this weekend, they're inviting you to celebrate with them at a free community event.

Paula's Donuts is turning 30 years old!

They don't even look like they're in their 20's, I know, but Paula's Donuts is celebrating their 30th anniversary this weekend and they're throwing a party that you won't want to miss.

It's hard to believe that it was 1996 when Paula Huber bought an old Dickie's Donuts to open the very first Paula's Donuts. Since then, they've become a staple by providing Western New York with the biggest, most delicious donuts on the planet.

Celebrate 30 years at Pawla's Palooza Pet Adoption Event

They're throwing a huge community event this weekend that is free to attend. Come on out to their Larkinville store for live music from Nerds Gone Wild, food trucks, face painting, hair braiding, local vendors, and more. Buddy's Second Chance Rescue will be on hand so you can meet some adoptable dogs too! 

Plus, they will be selling their brand-new "Muddy Paws" donut to support Buddy's Second Chance Rescue.
