About Sip Fest Passport
Sip Fest Passport started as a companion web app for the Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival, but has since grown to support other festivals as well. Use it to browse your local festival's vendors and drinks, save favourites to your wishlist, and keep a journal of the drinks you've tried—so you never forget a great sip.
About the creator
Hey, I'm April!
As an avid Hot Chocolate Festival participant, each year I would spend an embarassingly long time browsing the festival website and dreaming of which drinks to try first.
And each year, I would spend more time making spreadsheets and copying notes over from the festival website than I did actually drinking hot chocolate!
So finally, in 2026, I decided to build the app of my dreams to help me get the most out of the festival.
And I'm inviting you, fellow festival participant, to join me here! My hope for all of us is that we can spend more time checking out the incredible vendors, and less time planning where we'll go next.
I hope you love it as much as I do! If you have any feedback, please feel free to reach out to me .
