Queens Night Market Returns for 2018

POSTED BY

NYC Foodie Alert: Eat your way around the world at the Queens International Night Market, styled on the popular outdoor night markets of Asia, with street food and entertainment.

This night-time street fair returns April 21st for the 2018 season, every Saturday night, 6pm to Midnight, through October 27th.

It’s one of the best outdoor food festivals in New York, with more than 100 food and crafts vendors reflecting the multi-cultural population of Queens, New York City’s most international borough.  Last year there was “street food” from several dozen countries, and nothing is priced over $5.

Plus there are live music and dance performances.

No wonder the Queens International Night Market drew some 600,000 visitors in 2017.

It’s a busy month for food in Queens.

best nyc foodie eventsThe annual New York World’s Fare food festival is in Citi Field the following weekend, April 28/29, with more than a hundred food and drink vendors to sample.

Queens Night Market pigIn past years, food at the Queens Night Market has included Trinidadian shark sandwiches, Guatemalan hot dogs, Hungarian Kürtös Kalács, Filipino Lumpia, Peruvian salchipapas and ceviche, Japanese Okonomiyaki, Chinese hand-pulled noodles and squid on skewers, Burmese pancakes and more,and there’s no reason to think this season will be different.

It’s also a good place to stock up on well-priced seasonal items like back-to-school supplies.

Due to extremely limited parking,  Queens Night Market organizers urge visitors to take mass transit.
Subway directions to Queens Night Market
The closest transit station is the 7 train stop at 111th St. From 111th street walk south 4 blocks until you pass under an overpass. The avenue numbers should be increasing as you walk south.You will see the Queens Night Market on your left in the parking lot after passing under the overpass (corner of 111th Street and 45th Avenue).

However you get there, it’s a lot cheaper than a trip to Chang Mai, Thailand, or Taipei, Taiwan, where I’ve eaten myself into oblivion at their famous night markets.

The Queens International Night Market is 6pm to midnight Saturdays, and family-friendly.
