All of Colorado’s Oktoberfest celebrates have concluded over the last few weeks, but if you’re more into chocolate and other sweets than beer and brats, you’ll love what’s coming to Denver this weekend!

Choctoberfest, which is touted as “the ultimate celebration of Oktoberfest, Halloween and chocolate,” is happening Saturday (Oct. 8) at the Arapahoe County Fairgrounds in Aurora.

Vendors from across the country will be offering tastes of chocolate candy, cakes, cookies, truffles, fudge, brownies, toffees, cupcakes, coffees and more. The festival also features live music, holiday gifts, aerial chocolate apple bobbing, and chocolate pudding eating contest.

Get your tickets at ChocolateFests.org.
