YYC Hot Chocolate Fest reveals participating vendors
Things are about to heat up in Calgary as the lineup for the annual YYC Hot Chocolate Fest has just been announced.
The festival, which is one of the highlights of winter, is taking place from February 1 to 29, and over the course of the month, Calgarians will be able to try out hundreds of unique hot chocolates from vendors all over the city.
This year will see a whopping 114 vendors taking part in the festivities, offering some impressive hot chocolate creations in the hopes of winning the title of Calgary’s best hot chocolate.
During the festival, Calgarians will also be able to vote for their favourite hot chocolates in three categories: best hot chocolate, best spirited hot chocolate (for boozy offerings) and a new category for the most creative hot chocolate.
The most sold hot chocolate throughout the festival will also get an award.
It’s not just about the sweet sips either, as the month-long event also helps to raise money for Calgary Meals on Wheels, with last year’s festival raising over $100,000.
