Feast at Queens Night Market
Beginning on April 16, Queens Night Market will make its eighth consecutive appearance. On April 16 and April 23, the amazingly diversified weekly food festival, which offers a delicious sampling of everything Queens has to offer, will host two "sneak preview" nights. On the official Queens Night Market website, tickets for those two Saturdays are presently $5 in advance and $8 at the door.
According to a statement from the market, "because of the surprisingly high turnout on opening night our first few years." In order to reduce traffic, congestion, and the impact on the neighborhood, we are only offering a limited number of $5 tickets for sneak peek nights on April 16 and April 23.
- What is it? A wonderfully diverse, weekly food fest, which serves up a delightful taste of all that Queens has to offer.
- Why go? There is a $5 and $6 price cap per item at the market, even with rising food costs. Since the market first opened in 2015, the festival has highlighted cuisine from around 90 countries and averaged 15,000 attendees every Saturday last year alone.
