EKIBEN NIGHT MARKET 2025

2025 Vendors to be announced soon!

ONE NIGHT ONLY.

Ekiben Night Market is a one night only event. It’s a chance for people to try new food and have a good time while shining a light on Baltimore.

This isn’t just an event. It’s a spark—an excuse for strangers to become neighbors, for friends to make new traditions, and for our community to show what makes it truly one-of-a-kind. We’re building something joyful, inclusive, and meaningful.
