About this Event
🍡 MINI NIGHT MARKET EIGHT: DON’T W8, FULL PL8, IT’LL BE GR8 🍢
In partnership with the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy, join us at the iconic and magical Dequindre Cut Freight Yard, just a few blocks away from Eastern Market, for an evening of AAPI food and fun on Saturday, June 27 from 5-9 pm!
A weekend event! Completely outdoors! Dog-friendly! And…the Freight Yard has a BAR! For all these reasons and so many more, we love putting on events here as it offers such a unique vibe and contrast to our Eastern Market Night Markets!
Once again, we’re calling this one a “mini” night market because the Freight Yard has a smaller footprint than Eastern Market, so we want to make sure to manage expectations on that front. There will be less vendors overall, but there will still be plenty of the spectacular flavors, scents, and vibes you all know and love to go around! We’re also massively updating our layout here and situating vendors up and down the Cut outside of the Freight Yard’s bounds, which will mean plenty more room to move and groove!
A HUGE thank you to our returning Night Market Eight sponsors - Ima Noodles and Scrap Soils! We could not put on events at these scales and quantities without your generous support! Scrap Soils, as always, will be situating compost bins throughout the event space to collect food scraps, so we can collectively divert the food waste at our event!
And of course, the stunning poster artwork you see is once again by the phenomenally talented Second Rodeo Works! Eight is such a lucky number in many Asian cultures and so we knew we had to do it big for Night Market Eight! Enter: the Tray of Togetherness - a symbol of gathering together with our community and well wishes for many prosperous events and years to come!
So come one, come all, and come together for a perfect June summer evening outdoors to celebrate culture and community in Detroit and on the Dequindre Cut Greenway! Share this event with your communities far and wide and we hope to see you all there!
