Vendor stories
In their words.
“If I could only do one coffee festival in a year, it's this one. I am based in NC and it's totally worth it to drive 5hrs and be part of this awesome event. It's THAT GOOD.”

“The DMV Coffee & Chocolate Festival has been a game-changer for our business. Three years ago, this event opened the doors for us and we've been growing ever since. The 2025 edition was our most successful yet, setting a new record in sales.”

“The DMV Chocolate and Coffee Festival is the best show of the year. Very well organized and they create a great buzz and draw in a great crowd. Other shows could take some notes on what a great event is.”
