SUMMARY:Victoria Tea Festival Revival
DESCRIPTION:The Victoria Tea Festival Revival is a grassroots\, farm-to-c
 up celebration of tea\, returning for its 11th edition on Saturday\, Octo
 ber 3\, 2026\, at Nootka Court in downtown Victoria. Presented by the Int
 ernational Tea Appreciation Society\, the festival gathers merchant-educa
 tors who pour teas sourced directly from farms in Japan\, China\, India\,
  Taiwan\, Korea and beyond\, each ready to talk about where their tea com
 es from and how it is made. The single-day event runs through the afterno
 on and blends a tasting fair with a symposium\, live music\, food\, a cer
 amics gallery\, documentary screenings and a friendly world tea champions
 hip. Rather than a slick trade show\, it has the warm\, curious feel of a
  community gathering built by tea lovers for tea lovers\, and visitors ar
 e encouraged to bring their own teacup. Admission is by donation on a pay
 -what-you-can basis\, keeping the day welcoming and accessible\, though t
 ickets can be limited. For anyone interested in specialty tea\, sustainab
 le sourcing or simply a relaxed cultural afternoon downtown\, the festiva
 l is a distinctive stop on Victoria's autumn calendar. Nootka Court's cen
 tral location makes it easy to combine with a stroll through the surround
 ing shops\, galleries and cafes of Victoria's old town.\n\nhttps://vanisl
