Friday Night Market Debuts At UN Plaza Tonight
Published on September 05, 2014
Hanging out around Civic Center at sundown probably doesn't sound like your idea of a good time.
But what if the area featured a beer garden? And live music, and food trucks, and cocktails? Now it's not sounding quite so dire, is it ...
Tonight, head to UN Plaza for the debut of the Friday Night Market, a new event that promises to transform the heart of Mid-Market – at least for a few hours a week.
Some highlights include:
The Friday Night Markets will run weekly from tonight through October 24th. If this eight-week trial proves popular, the events might become a regular Civic Center fixture.
Tonight's debut is scheduled for 4pm to 9pm at UN Plaza, on Market Street between 7th and 8th. If you attend, check back in and let us know how it was.
