Choco Town Brings Immersive All-Ages Chocolate and Candy Experience to Detroit

TROY, Mich. – Choco Town unwraps its candy-coated, immersive experience for metro Detroiters for a limited time beginning March 16, 2023, at Oakland Mall in Troy, Michigan. The waitlist for tickets is now open and ticket sales officially begin Jan. 11. Individuals on the waitlist will have the opportunity to purchase tickets on Jan. 10.

A Fever Original event, the sweet adventure is a chocolate-filled experience for those with a sweet tooth. It stimulates visitors’ five senses as they explore an eye-popping chocolate village filled with delicious interactive elements along every step of the way.

From houses and fountains to chocolate-chip rain and a Cotton Candy Salon and banana-split swings, the moment visitors embark on their choc-o-licious journey from Choco Town’s main street and travel all the way to the town square, there are endless photo opportunities against mouthwatering backdrops and seemingly endless delicious chocolate samples. New residents of Choco Town even have the opportunity to make their own chocolate bar and learn how chocolate is made. The immersive experience also features taste-testing, games and other sweet surprises.

And, of course, there will be lots and lots of chocolate to sample.

Following an appearance in Boston in early 2022, Detroit is only the second stop Choco Town has made in the U.S.

“I can’t sugar-coat it. We’re really excited to bring Choco Town to the metro Detroit area. It’s one of the most delicious, fun and Instagram-able experiences our guests will have this year – fully immersive and something they’ll never forget,” said Mary Fuhrman, Associate Producer, Fever. “A journey through this sweet village isn’t just something conjured in a dream. Visitors of Choco Town will marvel at the level of creativity and the intricate details put into it on every level.”

Ticket prices will be released Jan. 10. All ages welcome – kids under 3 years old do not need a ticket. Minors under the age of 16 will not be allowed inside without a parent or guardian. Visits typically average 60 to 90 minutes. To join the waitlist or purchase tickets, please visit https://feverup.com/m/123683.
