Souk Matcha Festival is back in Metro Manila with two four-day runs this April, starting at TriNoma on April 16. (gmanetwork.com) The first stop runs from April 16 to 19 at the TriNoma Activity Center in Quezon City. The second runs from April 23 to 26 at Eastwood Central Plaza in Quezon City. (gmanetwork.com) Organizer Souk said the April schedule follows its debut matcha festival at Glorietta in Makati in March 2026. Manila Bulletin reported the new run expands the event from one mall stop to two back-to-back weekends. (gmanetwork.com, mb.com.ph) At TriNoma, GMA News listed vendors including Matchanese, The Sweet Whisk, Matcha House, Too Much Matcha, and Matcha with Pat. The same report said Rai Matcha, Match Better Cafe, Twenty Four Bakeshop, Tara Photobooth, Le Bon Matcha, More Matcha, Acay, Huddle Up Matcha, Soft Brews Club, and Dear Aure are also joining. (gmanetwork.com) Manila Bulletin described the festival as a mix of matcha drinks, desserts, and lifestyle booths. Metro.Style said admission is free for both the TriNoma and Eastwood runs. (mb.com.ph, metro.style) The event lands as matcha keeps showing up in new Philippine retail launches and food coverage this year. In March, GMA News reported that South Korean chain Super Matcha opened its first Philippine branch at SM Megamall in Mandaluyong. (gmanetwork.com) Souk’s April run also shifts the festival north and east from its Makati debut, putting it in two Quezon City mall hubs over consecutive weekends. The next stop after TriNoma is Eastwood on April 23. (gmanetwork.com, mb.com.ph)
