While September may feel like the end of summer, there are still some outdoor festivals taking place to keep the warm weather vibes going. One of those festivities is the return of Seattle’s original night market. The CID Night Market is back in September, and here’s what to know!

Returning on Saturday, September 21st, the annual street festival will take over Seattle’s Historic Chinatown-International District after its cancellation in 2023 due to rising costs and a lack of sponsors.

This year, the free, all-ages street fest will celebrate the Chinatown-International District neighborhood through street vendors, food trucks, and cultural performances.


“Since 2006, the CID Night Market has provided locals and visitors a unique open-air market experience – at night,” state organizers.

“Visitors can expect to find dozens of local street vendors offering food, arts and crafts, and more. Cultural performances including a lion dance, taiko, and martial arts demonstrations will take place under the red arch in Hing Hay Park as the sun sets.”

Get ready to celebrate the Chinatown-International District neighborhood!
