Charcuterie boards are a party staple. They are easy to put together and can include something for everyone. With the holidays coming, I'm looking forward to enjoying lots of meat and cheese boards! ALDI has always been a go-to grocery store for stocking up on charcuterie supplies at reasonable prices. To showcase their love for all things charcuterie, this December, ALDI is hosting a two-day Charcuterie Chalet Pop-Up.
ALDI lovers in the Chicago area will get to experience the Charcuterie Chalet on December 4 and 5th at Loft on Lake. This loft space is located in the Fulton Market District and is easily accessible by car, train, bus and taxi. With ALDI headquarters located in Batavia, Illinois, in the Chicago metropolitan area, it seems fitting to host the pop-up in their hometown.
This immersive experience’s theme is 'cozy ski chalet' and features over 90 of ALDI’s meats, cheeses and other charcuterie board favorites on seven different boards. The boards are themed and will include a holiday sweater and a chalet board. Guests will get to taste their way through many of ALDI’s different meats, cheeses, nuts, crackers and more. There may even be a sweets-themed board!
What pairs perfectly with cheese? Wine, of course. ALDI is giving guests the full experience including a complimentary glass of their wine. Expect plenty of photo opportunities to showcase all the delicious bites. Those of us not in the Chicago area will be very jealous.
The Charcuterie Chalet Pop-Up by ALDI is coming to Chicago!
How much will a ticket to this event cost? Zero dollars. Yes, this event is free! However, it does require a timed, one-hour time slot admission ticket for entry. These tickets will be available here beginning November 19. But you need to act fast because these tickets will sell out! This is an all-ages event. However, guests must be 21+ with ID to receive a wristband for the wine.
ALDI offers quality ingredients at such an affordable price. The ALDI Charcuterie Chalet Pop-Up is a fun way to start off the holiday season and get inspiration for your own seasonal charcuterie boards.
