One of the best parts about spring is the abundance of outdoor night markets and food trucks, and the Queens International Night Market is just one of those awesome events.
The fan favorite market will once again take over Meadows Corona Park starting this weekend, April 13th.
This family-friendly experience will feature over 100 independent vendors selling all sorts of food, merchandise, and art. Live music and performances will also take place.
The market will run every Saturday from 4pm to midnight.
Some exciting food we hope to see again include Afghan mantu and chapli kababs, Colombian arepas, Ukrainian borscht and pirozhki, Trinidadian curry crab and dumplings, Salvadoran pupusas, and much more.
The best part about it all? The price cap on almost all food options is $5 (with several $6 exceptions)! According to the founder of QNM, John Wang,
Our mission to be NYC’s most affordable, diverse, and welcoming community event has remained unchanged since we launched back in 2015. I know inflation is going to really squeeze our vendors’ already-thin margins, so we’ll keep their fees as low as we possibly can. We’ve never profited from vendor fees, and we’ll keep honoring that commitment to our vendors, who really are the lifeblood and the superstars of the event.
Another huge perk about the event is beer and wine will be available for purchase and patrons over 21 will be permitted to consume alcohol throughout the entire event grounds.
This grassroots phenomenon has turned into an NYC must see and it’s long-awaited return is cause for celebration!
