The 626 Night Market returns this month with Summer Garden Nights on the weekends of June 8 & 9, July 6 & 7, and August 3 & 4.
The new Paddock Gardens location will provide a dramatic environment for the continued evolution of L.A.’s premier Asian night market. Customers will now be able to enjoy cold beer and spirits on hot summer nights at Santa Anita’s expansive Sironas terrace bar that overlooks the night market in the garden. There will be a main stage in the middle of the Paddock Gardens for live performances with giant video boards for everyone to enjoy. More food, retail vendors, and entertainment will be located in a long alley right outside of the Paddock Gardens area. This one-of-a-kind paddock location provides customers with easy access to the event with parking entrances right off of Huntington Drive. “We’ve assembled a diverse collection of local vendors, activities, and entertainment for our summer night market series with new foods and products from entrepreneurs hoping to get exposure,” says Jonny C. Hwang founder of the 626 Night Market. “We would love for these events to become a summer tradition for the local communities.”
The 626 Night Market is accepting vendor and performance artist applications for upcoming events. MINI has signed on as a Platinum Partner to highlight their fresh line of MINI Coopers and promote their new Monrovia showroom opening in July. Nielson Ratings is joining as a Gold Partner to present a series of international and local short films at the events. East West Bank returns as an Entertainment Stage partner.
