Concession Stands: The Heart of Every Event
When it comes to attending a game, concert, or local event, the concession stand is often the highlight of the experience. Whether you’re craving something savory, need a refreshing drink, or want a sweet treat, there’s always something to enjoy. But what are the top picks people love the most? At BlazeBite, we’ve worked with venues using our app to gather insights on fan favorites. In this blog, we’ll break down the most popular concession stand items into three categories: food, drinks, and candy/snacks. These go-to favorites keep people coming back and are essential for any great menu.
Crowd Pleasing Foods You Can’t Resist
Over the years, we’ve seen which foods consistently top the charts through our app. Based on our data, Chick-fil-A sandwiches are the most popular item sold across venues. Following close behind are timeless classics like hot dogs, soft pretzels, and cheeseburgers. These staples remain favorites for hungry event-goers. Lastly, while pizza doesn’t quite hit the same numbers, it still ranks high as a crowd-pleaser.
Drink Favorites That Quench Cravings
When it comes to drinks, staying hydrated is a top priority for event-goers. Gatorade and Powerade lead the pack as the most popular drinks, appreciated for their refreshing and hydrating qualities. Bottled water is a close second, offering a simple and reliable choice. For soda lovers, Pepsi and Coke products are favorites, providing a variety of options to suit different tastes. Whether cooling off during an event or pairing with a snack, these drinks are always a hit.
Sweet and Salty Staples at the Concession Stand
Snacks are an essential part of any concession stand, and our data shows which ones are the most popular. Popcorn takes the top spot, offering the perfect blend of crunch and flavor. For sweet treats, Twix and M&Ms are crowd favorites, followed by Kit Kats with their satisfying snap. Fruity and tangy options like Skittles, Sour Patch Kids, and Airhead Extremes are also top choices. These snacks, whether sweet or salty, are always a hit and keep customers satisfied.
