"Kick off the Year of the Horse at the award winning night market! This all-ages event inspired by night markets in Asia has something for everyone, including a huge array of food vendors cooking up authentic and delicious fare."
"Last year's Night Market brought increased sales to local businesses throughout the entire neighborhood, and we can't wait to highlight even more local merchants in the Outer Sunset for attendees to discover and visit year-round."
"The night market was put on pause last July amid complaints that it had grown too large, and amid complaints from organizers that the city was too slow in reimbursing costs, which caused undue financial strain."
The Sunset Night Market, previously suspended due to overcrowding, relaunches Friday, February 27 as a Lunar New Year celebration and the first of four quarterly events. The market will operate on Irving Street between 20th and 25th avenues, featuring a main stage at 22nd Avenue with performances including Jing Mo Drum Roll at 5 pm, celebrity chef Martin Yan's cooking demonstration at 7 pm, and a lion dance at 6:30 pm. Dozens of food vendors will offer authentic Asian cuisine. Future markets are scheduled for June 12 (Dragon Boat Festival), September 25 (Autumn Moon Festival), and December 11 (Dong Zhi/Holiday Market). Local merchants anticipate increased foot traffic and sales, with organizers emphasizing neighborhood economic benefits.
