We’re set for Oct. 18, 2025!

We are thrilled to report that the 42nd edition of Chocolate Fest, Silicon Valley’s first and still favorite chocolate-tasting event, will return in a slightly different format to the Congregational Church of the Peninsula from 1-8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 18.

Instead of the familiar three-session format of the past, Chocolate Fest will be a one-day event with two sessions—1-4 p.m. and 5-8 p.m. Tickets will be sold by session so that we can manage the crowd of chocolate-lovers better.

Everything else should be familiar with abundant tasting (and purchase, if you like) of the chocolate wares of the best chocolatiers on the Peninsula, door prizes, a Silent Auction, champagne and coffee as well as live jazz on the veranda.

This year Chocolate Fest is partnering with the San Mateo County Health Foundation, which provides health care for all residents of our community, regardless of ability to pay.

Chocolate lovers beware — this weekend could put you over the edge.
