An event for the sweetest of souls, Chocolate Extravaganza dedicates an entire event to the sweets that we all love! Join us in downtown Hannibal for days of fun, friends, and chocolate. Chocolate passports are now available for purchase. The passports include several different treats from most downtown businesses, of which you get to choose five you would like to redeem. There will also be special coupons and discounts for chocolate passport holders. If you share a passion for chocolate, please join us for this decadent festival.

What is a Chocolate Passport?

Standard Passports include 5 tickets that are redeemable for your choice of exclusive gifts from downtown merchants during the Chocolate Extravaganza festival such as classic sweets and treats, Chocolate-decadent-themed retail items, and more. They serve as your guide to a day of indulgence and relaxation in the heart of historic downtown Hannibal.
