Main Street Kent Chocolate Walk 2026

Main Street Kent announces the 2026 Chocolate Walk, sponsored by Squirrel City Jewelers and Keleigh Veraldo-Zucchero, on Sat., Feb. 7 in downtown Kent! Ticket holders will check in at the Kent State Hotel & Conference Center to pick up their Chocolate Walk maps, passes, and totes before heading out to gather chocolate treats at dozens of locations — shopping, enjoying lunch and/or drinks along the way. All ticket holders will be entered in a drawing for the grand prize: a pair of diamond stud earrings or a diamond pendant necklace, compliments of Squirrel City Jewelers! Prize drawing will be held on Feb. 11 and winner will be notified by email.

This year, Main Street Kent is offering two types of tickets — standard tickets for $40 each and VIP tickets for $60 each. VIP ticket holders will have early access to the event at 11am (standard start times are 11:30am and 12:00pm) with a special tasting experience hosted by Bell Tower Brewing and Rosenberg’s Candies during the afternoon. There will be two seatings for 24 guests at each, one at 4pm and the other at 4:30pm, in Bell Tower Brewing’s private party room. Enjoy this exclusive tasting of beverages and chocolates to culminate the event (non-alcoholic options available).

Tickets will be available beginning Fri., Jan. 9 at 8am. This is an all-weather event and tickets are non-refundable. Chocolate treats are donated by participating businesses and event proceeds will benefit Main Street Kent in support of ongoing efforts to make downtown Kent a fun, vibrant and thriving community!
