7th Annual Ballston Spa Chocolate Festival
About the Festival
As part of the monthly First Friday Events, The Ballston Spa Business and Professional Association is excited to present the 7th Annual Chocolate Fest, taking place on First Friday, February 7, from 6-9 pm.
Area restaurants, bakeries, and chefs will compete to showcase their talents and tastes by preparing small, sample sized chocolate offerings in up to 3 categories: Dessert (Sweet), Savory, and Chocolate Beverage. These chocolate treats will be judged by a panel of our First Friday Fanatics as well our visitors in Fan Favorite competition.
On First Friday, visitors can pick up a ballot form and map at any participating business and head to their favorite "Sweet Spot" shops, restaurants, and chefs to sample a $1 chocolate taste. While savoring these chocolate treats, visitors will enjoy a variety of First Friday activities going on throughout the Village, including art gallery showings, live music, artist demonstrations, and special promotions and sales just in time for Valentine's Day.
