Big Y to Celebrate 90 Years with Big Bash on July 11

SPRINGFIELD — Big Y is inviting customers to join a one-day, company-wide celebration in honor of its 90th anniversary. On Saturday, July 11 from noon to 3 p.m., all Big Y supermarkets, Table & Vine, and Big Y Express fuel and convenience locations will host Big Y’s Big Bash, a festive customer appreciation event for all to enjoy.

This event is designed to thank shoppers for being part of Big Y’s 90-year journey, bringing together families, team members, and local communities for an afternoon of celebration across every store. Store teams will be joined by Big Y leaders and Support Center employees, reinforcing the company’s commitment to connecting with customers and celebrating together.

Customers can look forward to a lively in-store atmosphere with complimentary cupcakes, samples, and a scavenger hunt for children. Throughout the event, team members will also surprise shoppers at random with gift card giveaways and anniversary reusable bags, adding to the excitement of the celebration.

“For 90 years, our employees have welcomed customers into our stores as neighbors, friends, and family. As a local company, we are grateful to be a part of people’s daily lives — from weeknight dinners on the go to major milestone events,” said Nicole D’Amour Schneider, senior vice president of Retail Operations and Customer Experience. “This anniversary celebration gives us all the opportunity to come together as one community to acknowledge our past, present, and future and to thank our customers for being a part of our story. We look forward to celebrating with you.”

Big Y’s Big Bash is one of many activities taking place throughout 2026 as the company celebrates its 90th anniversary, honoring its heritage while looking ahead to the future.
