Greater Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival reveals participating vendors

Honolulu Coffee’s “The Donut” and “Raincouver” | Kafka’s Coffee Roasting “The Ultimate Kids Hot Chocolate” (Cody Briggs)

It may not be warm outside, but dozens of cafes, food trucks, bakeries, restaurants, and more will be hot as heck come January 14, as the Greater Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival returns on that date.

The celebration of all things hot chocolate runs for an entire month until February 14, and during those four weeks, folks will have ample opportunity to seek out the wildest, tastiest, and most picture-perfect sips concocted especially for this occasion by local establishments.

For the 2023 run, there are 66 vendors, including three supply partners. Twenty-two of those are new participants, and three are returning after a hiatus from the fest.

In general, all of this simply means we have a LOT of drinking and exploring to do.

This year the festival features 95 locations and a whopping 143 different hot chocolate flavours.

Giovane Caffè’s “Amarena Calda” and “Mandorlata Calda”
