Guadalcao is not just a fair, but an immersive experience that will revolve around cocoa in all its forms. The event is designed to offer activities and interactive spaces that will allow the public to learn about the cocoa production process, from cultivation to chocolate making. More than 100 exhibitors, both national and international, are expected to present their products and novelties, offering a unique opportunity to taste chocolates from different origins, some of them never seen before in Spain.

In addition, the fair will feature an agenda of conferences and round tables with the participation of industry experts, from farmers and producers to master chocolatiers and entrepreneurs. These speakers will address topics as diverse as the properties of cocoa, its impact on health, the importance of sustainability in its cultivation and the potential of gastronomic tourism related to cocoa. This last aspect is especially relevant for Seville, which aspires to position itself as a key destination on the cocoa route.

The organization has prepared a wide variety of activities for the whole family to enjoy the event. Among the highlights are the cooking workshops where attendees can learn how to make their own chocolate creations from renowned chefs. There will also be spaces dedicated to children, where they can participate in fun and educational activities to discover the fascinating world of cocoa in a fun way.

On the other hand, Guadalcao will also offer specialized tastings, where visitors will be able to taste chocolates of controlled origin, paired with drinks such as wine, coffee or rum, which will allow visitors to live a unique sensory experience. For the more curious, there will be live exhibitions of how chocolate is worked, from its tempering to its use in the most creative pastries.

One of the fundamental pillars of Guadalcao is the commitment to innovation and sustainability. In this sense, the fair seeks to raise awareness among both producers and consumers about the importance of sustainable practices in the cultivation and production of cocoa. During the event, initiatives and projects that promote responsible cocoa production and fair trade will be presented, highlighting those who are leading the change towards a more ethical and environmentally friendly industry.

Guadalcao will also be a meeting place for startups and emerging companies that are revolutionizing the sector with their innovative proposals, from new forms of cultivation to more efficient and environmentally friendly processing processes.

Although this is the first edition of Guadalcao, expectations are high. Seville has the ambition to turn this fair into a world reference event, attracting visitors and professionals from all over the world. With the growing trend of specialized gastronomic events, the city is positioned to take advantage of the growing demand for unique experiences around products such as cocoa.

Guadalcao will not only celebrate the history and tradition of cocoa, but will also look to the future, highlighting innovation and sustainability as fundamental axes for the evolution of the sector. Without a doubt, this event promises to be an unmissable event in the cultural and gastronomic calendar of Seville and a milestone for all chocolate and cocoa lovers.
