Get ready to feast, New York. If you are looking for the ultimate celebration of local flavor, we have the perfect weekend plans for you.
The beloved Bronx Night Market is officially returning on Saturday, May 9, 2026.
Taking over the Grand Concourse at East 161st Street, this all-day food festival is bringing together the absolute best of the borough.
The best part? Admission is completely free, and you don’t have to worry about running into the same old chain pop-ups.
A Menu Built By The Bronx
The team behind the event, We Eat Here, has curated a massive lineup of over 50 local food vendors. Every single stand on the block is proudly from the Bronx.
As founder Marco Shalma puts it, “The Bronx never needed another borough to validate its food. It needed a block.”
You can expect to see plenty of returning favorites serving up incredible bites. Be sure to come hungry for:
- Perros Locos: Slinging next-level gourmet street dogs.
- Barrelhouse Chicharrón: Serving up perfectly smoked pork belly and Colombian chorizo.
- Alta Garden: Dishing out crispy, plant-based empanadas.
- Soul Fusion: Bringing the ultimate comfort food cravings.
- A Taste of Eme: Satisfying your sweet tooth with cake pops, dipped strawberries, and custom sweets.
Alongside the veteran vendors, you will also find plenty of first-time culinary creators from across the borough.
Cash and cards are accepted at every single stand!
