The 626 Night Market, a celebration of community and culture inspired by the vibrant night bazaars of Asia, has returned to San Diego. The festival will take place at the Mission Valley Mall from August 2nd to August 4th, inviting attendees to immerse themselves in the wealth of food, crafts, and entertainment. 10News reports that the event aims to unite the community and empower local talent, including chefs, artists, and entrepreneurs.
In what is shaping up to be larger than previous iterations, the market has increased its footprint by 40%, providing more space for patrons to enjoy the festivities. Available tomorrow from 3 PM to 11 PM and extending on Saturday and Sunday from 1 PM to 11 PM, the event ensures ample time for San Diegans to explore and indulge in the various attractions. According to the 626 Night Market Instagram post, visitors can purchase a "626Sampler," which provides a taste of four menu items for a single price.
Admission is affordable, with presale tickets at $5.90 and tickets bought on event days at $6.93—with Eventbrite fees included, as the 626 Night Market official website details. The festivities boast over 250 vendors offering food, merchandise, and arts. Children 3 years old and under can enjoy free entry to a weekend packed with games, live concerts, and myriad entertainment possibilities.
