8th Annual Santa Cruz Chocolate Festival

Now in its eighth year, the Santa Cruz Chocolate Festival features chocolate and wine tastings, a silent auction, gift items for sale, demonstrations, music, and much more. New to the Chocolate Festival this year is a Chocolate Workshop which will take place from 11am-1pm, at the Cocoanut Grove, right before the opening of the Chocolate Festival.

The Chocolate Festival is a benefit for UCSC re-entry students sponsored by the UCSC Women's Club.

Advance tickets are available online for the workshop in addition to tasting tickets, souvenir glasses for wine tasting, cupcake decorating and Chocolate Festival apron. Tickets are also available to purchase the day of the festival as long as supplies last.
