We are excited to announce the Historic Downtown Long Grove Business Association’s (HDLGBA) new bite-size event that’s focused on ALL THINGS CHOCOLATE! We’re planning demos, classes, presentations, experiences, vendors, chocolatiers, entertainment and so much more. Hear about the history of chocolate, how it’s grown, sourced, and made. Learn how to taste craft chocolate correctly. Watch a demo to see how to make chocolate and chocolate treats at home! Our industry experts will be here to entertain, educate, energize, and engage attendees into the wonderful world of chocolate!
The HDLGBA created a smaller, new outdoor event (replacing Chocolate Fest) that allows us to experience ALL THINGS CHOCOLATE in a safe way for our attendees, staff and volunteers. Outdoor events are currently required to meet the State of Illinois Phase 4 Reopening Guidelines due to the Covid-10 Pandemic. Attendance must be limited to meet space requirements and ticketing is needed to manage attendance and seating in our gated and/or tent areas.
To ensure we are following these guidelines, you can expect:
Friday May 14, 2021 Sunday May 16, 2021

Other than necessary ticketed areas, the entire downtown is open for all visitors! We encourage all of our attendees to visit our retail merchants, restaurants, wine bars and brewery during their visit where they will find various chocolate-related products and treats.
