Cologne Museum Night at the Chocolate Museum
On November 7, 2026, from 6:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m.
An Evening Full of Delights, Chocolate Craftsmanship, and History
On November 7, 2026, the Chocolate Museum will once again open its doors for Cologne’s Museum Night! Get ready for a nighttime journey of discovery through the world of cacao and chocolate. We’ve put together a program full of melt-in-your-mouth delights just for you.
In our Confiserie, our Maîtres Chocolatiers will demonstrate the art of chocolate-making live on site. For a culinary dose of knowledge, we’ll be offering exquisite mini-tastings between 7:00 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. in the historic colonial goods store and in our Chocolate School.
We’ve also got plenty of treats and shopping opportunities lined up: Treat yourself to a break at our Chocolat Grand Café or stock up on fresh chocolates for home at our Chocolat Shop—both are open all night just for you!
Chocolate and its flavorful companions! Enjoy a selection of exquisite chocolates paired with special wines and high-proof delicacies. A pairing experience for true connoisseurs. A Cologne Museum Night ticket is required to participate.
Location: Colonialwarenladen
