10th Annual Toronto Chocolate Festival
Where:
Greater Toronto Area
When:
Oct 17th-Nov 8th
If you love chocolate (and who doesn't?), you simply need to be in town October 17th through November 8th. While some cities have wine, we have CHOCOLATE, especially during the 10th Annual Toronto Chocolate Festival. Local chocolatiers, pastry shops, and restaurants across the city participate in the 23-day celebration of everyone's favorite sweet treat, with discounts, special chocolatey creations, and decadent menus just for the event. As you plan your cocoa-craving attack, consider these highlight events, many 5-15 minutes from our luxury hotel in Yorkville.
