Chocolate Nation is no ordinary museum, it's a museum of experiences. A museum where you can taste no less than 10 different flavours of chocolate. Is your mouth watering already? Then book a ticket quickly. You will find us opposite Antwerp Central Station on Astridplein 7. We're open every day, because let's be honest: who could go a day without chocolate?
Say Belgium, and chocolate immediately comes to mind. Belgian chocolate is world famous. The love story between this small country and the sweet delight has been thriving for generations.
In 14 thematic rooms, we will take you on a 60 to 90 minutes journey and tell you the story of our Belgian chocolate. The tour starts in the cocoa plantations of the equator and follows the cocoa bean to world’s largest cocoa storage port in Antwerp. A gigantic fantasy machine demonstrates how chocolate is made and where the velvety smooth taste originates from.
During your tour through the museum you will find chocolate traditions, history, brands, products and innovations that have built its worldwide reputation.
We are pleased to welcome you! Curious about how much an admission ticket for a heavenly chocolate experience costs? Do you want to know what the easiest way to get here is? You will find all useful information here to prepare for your visit to Chocolate Nation in optimal fashion.
Chocolate Nation boasts modern B2B facilities. We welcome groups of up to 300 people in a separate, attractive B2B Lounge. You can count on the latest AV technology and of course call on our in-house catering (with accompanying chocolates).
Would you like to take a piece of Chocolate Nation home with you? In our shop you will find a wide variety of chocolates from our own atelier as well as from the many Belgian chocolate brands. Restaurant Octave, which is accessible from Chocolate Nation, serves Belgian cuisine with a twist.
In addition to the experience during your visit to Chocolate Nation, you can also organize and attend workshops. Our chocolatiers will teach you various chocolate creations in our different workshop premises, and you can of course take the pralines you have made home.
