Bariloche Chocolate Festival

Festival

A celebration of Bariloche's Swiss-German chocolate-making tradition, held in an Argentine Patagonian town famous for its Alpine character.

Bariloche Chocolate Festival in San Carlos de Bariloche, Argentina
17 APR
San Carlos de Bariloche, Argentina

Bariloche's chocolate tradition dates back to Swiss and German immigrants who settled the Patagonian town in the twentieth century, bringing European chocolate-making techniques that took root and flourished in what's become one of South America's most distinctive chocolate-producing regions.

Held around Easter, when chocolate consumption in Argentina traditionally peaks, the festival showcases the town's chocolatiers alongside their famously elaborate Easter egg displays, set against Bariloche's genuinely Alpine-feeling mountain backdrop.
