Tucson, AZ--- Tucson Foodie’s Asian Night Market returns Saturday, November 28, at Kino Sports Complex at 2500 E Ajo Way from 6-10pm. Since its debut in May 2025, the event has become a popular Tucson destination for experiencing the richness and diversity of Asian food, culture, and live entertainment. New offerings include early entry at 5pm and VIP parking next to the dedicated early entrance gate. A chef-served food flight (with three items) will be offered for an additional $20 along with the vendor offerings. Menu items will be announced shortly on the event website.
Beyond celebrating Asian cuisine and cultural traditions, the Asian Night Market provides an important economic platform for Asian vendors, connecting them with new audiences and creating opportunities for greater visibility and business growth. As a UNESCO City of Gastronomy, Tucson embraces the diversity of its culinary landscape, where Asian cuisines contribute distinctive flavors, ingredients, and traditions to the region’s vibrant food scene.
Whitney Meilan Yang, Co-Founder of longtime participant HUHU's House of Dumplings is looking forward to the next market to show off their new improved back of the house setup that should greatly improve service. "The last Asian Night Market changed everything for us. When we went full-time with our business this spring, we hoped people would embrace dumplings that are 100% vegan and gluten-free, but Tucson blew our expectations out of the water. We sold out so fast that we had Huhu himself rushing back to the kitchen to fetch more. Seeing folks wait so patiently was an incredible vote of confidence. That love inspired us to reinvest right back into our operation with better equipment and a bigger crew to keep lines moving. ANM gave our small business room to grow. We look forward to being back this month, not only with dialed-in service, but we'll also debut our new third dumpling recipe as our way of saying thank you."
Tickets to attend the Asian Night Market are $10 (free admission for children age 12 and under). Free public parking is included in the lot directly west of the event. Foodie Club members save 50% on their event ticket purchase in the app or directly on the event website. Tickets can be purchased at https://tucsonfoodie.com/asian-night-market#tickets and any remaining tickets will be sold at the gate on November 28th until the venue reaches capacity. The last edition sold out at 4,000 attendees and advance purchase is recommended for guaranteed entry.
