The Preview Café Returns for Preview Ball 2026
Our specialty café kept guests fueled with coffee, matcha, and sweet treats throughout fashion’s biggest night.

No day at the Preview HQ is complete without coffee. Whether it’s a straight-up iced Americano, an elaborate latte, or a soothing cup of warm matcha, we’re always down for a pick-me-up—and the biggest night on our editorial calendar was no exception.
At the Preview Ball 2026, the foyer of the Marriott Grand Ballroom at Newport World Resorts was transformed by Moss Design House into an inviting oasis serving sweet treats and a welcome caffeine boost.
Presented by Birch Tree Adult Boost, this year's Preview Café gave guests a quick energy jolt—with a side of collagen and beauty milk.
The Preview Cafe at Preview Ball 2026
Tucked beneath a canopy loosely draped over scaffolding, the Preview Café made for the perfect pit stop after guests walked the Preview Ball’s gray carpet. With a night of partying ahead, who could say no to a good old caffeine fix? The café served both coffee and matcha lattes made with Birch Tree Adult Boost with Collagen, with guests also able to get an extra shot of the chilled beauty milk.
Light bites made with the same collagen-enhanced milk accompanied the drinks. Guests could snack on polvoron, butter cookies, and crisps before heading into the ballroom for the night’s festivities.
What’s more, the café doubled as the perfect spot to snap OOTDs and catch up with friends from the industry. After all, a cuppa always makes for a good prop on the grid!
The Preview Ball 2026 is co-presented by Birch Tree Adult Boost and Dove, in partnership with IQOS*, GCash, and Belo Medical Group, with Event Sponsors Stanley, HONOR Magic V6, and Penshoppe, Giveaway Sponsor Colgate, and venue partner Marriott Manila Hotel at Newport World Resorts.
