Chocolate Festival 2025 at the Vienna Marx Halle: A Paradise for Sweet Tooths
Attention, sweet tooths! After the great success last year, Austria's largest sweet family event, the "Chocolate Festival 2025", returns to the Marx Halle in Vienna from January 31 to February 2, 2025. This chocolate festival of superlatives is all about the cocoa bean and the sweet temptations that can be conjured from it.
The program includes culinary shows with top chefs, confectioners, and chocolate specialists from all over the world, dozens of stands with chocolate specialties from Austria and all over Europe, as well as workshops for children and adults. Visitors can taste chocolate beer, chocolate skewers, chocolate liqueur, chocolate pizza, chocolate burgers, and countless other chocolate innovations.
Workshops and 300-Kilo Chocolate Bar as Festival Highlights
A special highlight of the festival is the appearance of internationally renowned pastry chef Nina Metayer, who was named the "best patissière in the world" by the International Union of Pastry Bakers in 2023 and the best pastry chef in the world 2024 by the prestigious list "The World's 50 Best Restaurants". Nina will be present on Friday, January 31, 2025, to open the festival with two shows.
Two more highlights are a workshop by Niemetz, where visitors learn to design the famous Swedish bombs themselves, and a workshop by Thermomix with homemade chocolate recipes. A special attraction is also the presentation of Austria's largest chocolate bar weighing about 300 kg, which is sold for a good cause.
Program Also for Little Sweet Tooths
The organizers focus on family-friendly offers for participation for young and old: "This year we will involve the little sweet tooths more with a variety of free activities such as chocolate painting, bouncy castles, discovery games, and special children's courses," says organizer Chris Delattre. On stage, visitors can expect a varied entertainment program with saxophonists, Latin American music groups, dance performances, and much more.
