What started as a dream event for Dean and Lena Strober has grown into the largest chocolate and coffee festival in the world. Now in its 15th year, the Southwest Chocolate and Coffee Fest is set to bring together 200 vendors at Expo New Mexico on Saturday, April 5, and Sunday, April 6.
The festival will showcase chocolate, coffee, and gourmet foods from some of the best artisans in the industry, offering New Mexicans a weekend of indulgence.
“The event traditionally attracts about 22,000 people over two days,” said Dean Strober, co-founder of the festival. “That makes it the largest chocolate and coffee festival in the world, based on both vendor participation and attendance.”
