Entrance Is Free at This Year's 4-Day World Chocolate Fair

(SPOT.ph) The World Chocolate Fair is upon us–and some things never change, as with its seventh run, Auro continues to be partnered with S Maison. The lifestyle mall's S Maison Main Atrium will be the venue for the four-day event, from July 2 to 5.

And this year's theme? It's Le Cirque Du Auro Chocolat. Inspired by circuses and carnivals, this should be telling of what else, aside from chocolate, is in store. There'll be face painting, balloon animals, tarot card readings, magicians, and, maybe because it's Pride month too, there will be drag performances as well.

For anyone whose idea of a perfect day involves chocolate in all its forms, the World Chocolate Fair is going to be heaven on earth. Expect everything from bars with varying levels of sweetness and bitterness to chocolate-based drinks and limited-edition pastries made especially for the occasion.

For its seventh edition, Auro and S Maison have teamed up with 10 brands, each bringing something special that should appeal to any chocoholic:

• Kultura

• Conrad Hotel

• Auro Chocolate Café

• Chef Leti Moreau

• Half Saints

• Ciento Cookies

• Mindful Indulgence

• Macao Imperial Tea

• Tender Loving Cakes

• Alchemy Baking Magic

Since this year's theme is Le Cirque Du Auro Chocolat, expect more than just chocolate—though, for many (like us), that would already be reason enough to come. Throughout the fair, guests can enjoy free face painting or balloon animals with every purchase from the stores, while those curious about what the future holds can sit down for a tarot reading session with Beyond Senses.

There will also be other entertaining activities scheduled for each day, adding to the carnival atmosphere. These are what's scheduled for the World Chocolate Fair 2026:

• July 2: Drag Performance

• July 3: Bubble Show

• July 4: Magician

• July 5: Drag Performance

Want to go on different days to catch the scheduled events? There's no need to choose a single day or try to squeeze everything into a single visit because admission is completely free. So you can bring friends, family, or anyone who wouldn't need much convincing to spend a day surrounded by chocolate, which shouldn't be hard to find.

The World Chocolate Fair 2026 will be at the Main Atrium of S Maison, Seaside Boulevard, Coral Way, Pasay City, from July 2 to 5, 2026.
