A chocoholic’s dream – The Oregon Chocolate Festival

The Oregon Chocolate Festival is celebrating its 16th year in 2020. Held at the Ashland Hills Hotel & Suites at 2525 Ashland St. in Ashland, the event features mouth-watering creations from dozens of West Coast chocolatiers.

The Oregon Chocolate Festival is held Friday, March 6 through Sunday, March 8, and includes not only tantalizing varieties of chocolates; but several events like Spa Chocolate Cocktail Party for adults and the Chocolate Heaven for Everyday Cooks workshop.

Each year, another chocolate art piece is displayed in the hotel lobby. Workshops on Wine and Chocolate pairings, educational sessions, including one about the History of Chocolate and chef demonstrations, are sprinkled throughout the day on Saturday and Sunday.

The Chocolate Maker’s Wine Dinner kick off the weekend on Friday night, and a Charlie’s Chocolate 5K and 10K Run/ Walk and the Chocolate Brunch start the festivities on Sunday morning. There’s something for everyone!

Your love of chocolate is also helping us spread love and support to the very little ones. In previous years, the Oregon Chocolate Festival has donated over $10,000 to the Asante Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in Medford, Oregon.
