EuroBean is back – a new chapter begins in 2027
When we announced in May that the EuroBean Chocolate Festival would take a break in 2026, we didn't yet know exactly what would come next. We wanted to take our time. To reflect on the past years, develop new ideas and, above all, ask ourselves what EuroBean should look like in the future.
Now we can finally say: EuroBean is back. And 2027 is going to be a very special year.
Back at the Industriemuseum Chemnitz
From September 3–5, 2027, the EuroBean Chocolate Festival will return to the place where it has grown over the past years: the Industriemuseum Chemnitz.
Chocolate Makers from different countries, exceptional bean-to-bar...
We are taking a break in 2026
The EuroBean Chocolate Festival will not take place in 2026.
After several intensive festival years, and especially after the 2025 edition during Chemnitz’s year as European Capital of Culture, we are taking time to evaluate, consolidate and further develop the format. Since its beginnings, EuroBean has been more than a chocolate market: it is a meeting place for chocolate makers, cacao producers, professionals, curious visitors, families and everyone who wants not only to taste bean-to-bar chocolate, but to understand it.
Taking a break is therefore not a decision against the festival. It is a decision in favour of its quality.

This year, the EuroBean Chocolate Festival is collaborating for the first time with Chaanz, Germany's largest provider of festival apps, which already provides digital support for major events such as Rock am Ring, Hurricane and the DTM.

This is made possible by the precise indoor localisation of Pinpoint technology, which allows fo...
A Chocolate Weekend at Fidelio Café
We couldn't miss the opportunity to meet the best chocolate makers from the UK and get them excited for the EuroBean Festival during the weekend of October 12th and 13th, 2024. Alongside many chocolate enthusiasts, we visited the Fidelio Café in Farringdon, London. Spencer Hyman from Cocoa Runners, organizer of the London Fair and a great friend of the EuroBean Chocolate Festival, put together a wonderful event. Not only could we taste and purchase amazing chocolate, but we also learned a lot about cocoa and chocolate through various talks and tastings.
On Sunday, we were also delighted to meet Jaques Cöp from Coco Caravan, who attended the fair as a...
Pure Anticipation: Planning Meeting at the Industriemuseum Chemnitz
Last weekend, our technician, our head of volunteers, and the EuroBean team met with the director of the Industriemuseum Chemnitz – and one thing quickly became clear: The excitement for the EuroBean Chocolate Festival 2025 is huge!
