Inspired by the famous open-air nighttime bazaars of Asia, 626 Night Market was created to bring people together to eat, drink, socialize, and be entertained under the stars. Founded in 2012 and named after the 626 area code of the San Gabriel Valley, our event has grown into an iconic California tradition โ a celebration of culture, creativity, and community. What started as a local gathering has
become a large-scale festival featuring 250+ food, merchandise, and craft vendors, along with artists, games, live concerts, and entertainment attractions that delight all ages. Each 3-day weekend welcomes up to 100,000 attendees ready to explore, taste, and experience something new. Our flagship events are held at:
๐ Santa Anita Park in Arcadia
๐ OC Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa
At its heart, 626 Night Market is more than an event โ itโs a platform for local chefs, performers, and entrepreneurs to share their passions and stories. We aim to unite and empower the community by celebrating creativity and diversity through food, art, and culture.
