We're also excited to introduce something brand new to the event this year… Night Market Bingo! Here's how it works: participants can pick up a Bingo Board at the event and explore the market to fill it in. Each square will challenge you to find something fun - maybe it’s a delicious treat from one of our vendors, or maybe it’s a colorful activity waiting for you to join in. Cross off each square as you go, and once your board is complete, turn it in for a chance to win!
Kids who finish their boards can turn them in right away for a special prize. Adults, we didn’t forget you! Adults who complete their Night Market Bingo board will be entered into a drawing for one of three exciting prize bundles. Night Market Bingo is a fun and interactive way to make sure you don’t miss any of the incredible vendors, activities, and surprises we have lined up this year.
We’ll also have limited edition NMPL Night Market glow sweatshirts for sale - or come rocking your design from a previous year! We can’t wait to see you there!
