Sari Sari Mercado Market kicks off in Edmonton this weekend

Aug 22 2023, 6:00 pm

The Sari Sari Mercado Market, a popular outdoor market and festival, kicks off next month in Edmonton.

Located at the Edmonton Philippine International Centre, this market will feature a wide variety of vendors with Filipinx makers, artists, entrepreneurs, bakers, performers, and business owners. There will also be live entertainment and food trucks.

The exciting festival will take place on Saturday, August 26, from 4 to 10 pm.

“Sari Sari” is a Tagalog word that essentially means a variety of everything, and a sari-sari store is a family-run sundry store that’s incredibly common on most street corners throughout the Philippines.

This edition of the market is barkada, which is a Tagalog word for friends.

There are some extremely exciting Edmonton food events coming up and this is definitely one of them.

Yelo’d Ice Cream, a super popular Filipino ice cream spot in Edmonton, is one of the food vendors people can look forward to trying. This is a quaint shop that specializes in soft-serve ice cream, with flavours like pandan and black sesame, as well as baked goods such as bilogs, a round sweet treat.

You don’t want to miss out on this one.
