The 20th edition of Savour the Chill is scheduled to take place on Saturday, February 24th, from 12pm to 3pm. Regardless of the weather, Downtown Belleville will be buzzing with the savoury aroma of diverse soups. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own spoons to reduce waste and prepare for a delightful culinary adventure. Forgot your spoon? No problem!

This year’s event will continue its tradition of the People’s Choice Award, voted by soup samplers, and the Judges’ Choice Award, determined by a panel of esteemed judges from our passionate community including our very own mayor of Belleville, Neil Ellis, Belleville Police Chief Mike Callaghan, Chef Karin from Loyalist college, Hardik from Belleville International, and Brenda Foran from Pop Ups on the Bay (and the person who started Savour The Chill)! You can vote for your favourite soup using a QR code at participating restaurants, or check out our website and social media pages for voting details!
Speaking of community involvement, Savour the Chill is excited to announce partnerships with the CDC and Belleville Downtown DocFest, who will be pausing all films during Savour The Chill, making this a fun-filled community event.
