The Queens International Night Market is a large and extremely family-friendly open-air night market, located right next to the New York Hall of Science in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. The night market features almost 100 independent vendors selling merchandise, art and food; but it’s known and beloved by foodies for — well, the diverse food offerings.
There’s also regular, small-scale cultural performances, too. The whole affair celebrates the rich cultural diversity and heritage of my home borough, which is arguably one of the most diverse places on Earth.
Last Saturday, I was at the Queens Night Market with a dear friend. Of course, I wound up taking a lion’s share of the photos for the night — but besides the photos, the food was amazing.
The night market is on hiatus over the next couple of weeks for the US Open but I expect that they’ll be back in September. So if you haven’t gone, keep your eyes and ears for updates.
