"Timed-entry" tickets at this location help ensure a smoother flow of guests throughout the day. Please come during the time designated on your tickets, as priority entry will be given to these ticket holders. This entry procedure will enhance the experience for everyone! Once inside the event, attendees can stay for as long as they like.
A limited number of "VIP Tickets" will be available online only until they are sold out.
Our VIP Program offer guests early Preview Entry to The Chocolate Expo beginning at 9:00 a.m. (one-hour earlier than General Admission)... plus priority admission throughout the day, without a designated entry time, for a new low admission price of $30/adult and $15/child (ages 5-12). Also included is a VIP Souvenir Lanyard.
Our "4PM Late-Day Special" discounted tickets are available online for just $10/person (all ages 5 and above) for the last two hours of the Expo between 4 and 6pm when crowds are typically smaller and the atmosphere is more relaxed. At the door, the Late Day Special tickets are priced at $15/person (all ages 5 and up).
Most vendors will still have samples after 4 PM, and plenty of products are typically available for purchase during this later part of the day.
Please note that Late-Day Special ticket holders will NOT be admitted before 4 p.m. Also, note that all tickets are sold on a non-refundable basis.
