Shopping, payday deals, matcha and ube all in one place? Robinsons Department Store is giving shoppers plenty of reasons to head to the mall with its Shopping Festival, bringing together bargain finds and two of today’s most irresistible food trends.
Running from August 27 to 30, 2026 at Robinsons Department Stores nationwide, the four-day event combines limited-time discounts, shopper rewards and special activities inspired by the unmistakable green of matcha and vibrant purple of ube.
Both flavors have become social media favorites, appearing in everything from lattes and cakes to ice cream and pastries. Matcha brings an earthy, slightly bitter kick, while ube offers a rich, creamy sweetness that Filipinos have long loved.
This time, shoppers can do more than simply scroll through tempting creations online.
At Robinsons Department Store Galleria and Ermita, participating matcha and ube merchants are serving up special treats, discounts, freebies and interactive experiences for shoppers. Customers who spend at least ₱1,000 can unlock exclusive offers from participating vendors from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Those who want to take their café obsession home can also join an exclusive Ube and Matcha Making Workshop, where participants can learn how to create their own drinks from scratch.
And because no payday shopping spree is complete without a good bargain, the festival is rolling out limited-time Flash Deals from 12 noon to 2 p.m. daily.
Shoppers who spend at least ₱3,000 can get ₱200 off or receive a free Mini Puff Bag, while those who spend ₱5,000 can purchase a 520ml Insulated Tumbler for only ₱199.
Go Rewards members can stretch their shopping budget even further during the same two-hour window. Classic members who spend at least ₱3,500 can receive a ₱100 Robinsons Department Store Gift Certificate, while Black members who spend at least ₱5,000 can get a ₱200 Gift Certificate.
The combination of shopping perks and trending food experiences gives the festival a distinctly lifestyle-driven twist, making it more than another payday sale.
Whether you are hunting for wardrobe finds, picking up essentials, looking for a fun payday activity with friends, or simply incapable of resisting another matcha latte or ube creation, the Shopping Festival offers plenty to explore before the weekend ends.
So grab your shopping buddies, time your purchases around the flash deals and leave room for something green—or purple—in your cup.
The Robinsons Department Store Shopping Festival runs until August 30, 2026.
