Unbuckle those belts and get ready for a chocolate foodie feast. The Tampa Bay Chocolate Festival is a chocolate themed food truck event that features an array of delights, all featuring chocolate. Now in its 9th year, this hugely popular event attracts thousands of visitors each year.

The date for the 2022 Tampa Bay Chocolate Festival is February 12th from 1pm to 9pm. The event is located at Egypt Shriners, 5017 E. Washington Street, Tampa, Fl.

But this isn’t just a sweet-tooth fest, there’s lots of other savory eats and cocoa-themed food and beverages on offer too. There’s only one rule for the vendors – anything goes as long as it’s chocolate related!

Many diets are catered for during the Tampa Bay Chocolate Festival, including vegetarian, gluten free, keto, paleo, pescatarian and more.

Plus, a variety of non food vendors will also be offering a range of products. You’ll find arts, jewelry, clothing and accessories, handcrafted candles and soap, a tattoo artist and lots more.

This is a pet friendly festival if you want to take your pooch for a mooch, but be sure you take whatever you need to take care of your pet as there are no pet facilities available.

And did we mention FREE entry and FREE parking?
