"The municipal facility in Flushing that agreed provisionally to host the market’s multi-night series, located on the former site of the 1964 World’s Fair. With only about two months between signing the agreement and the market’s anticipated opening, facility leaders provisionally accepted a risky, volunteer-driven proposal and provided the parking-lot space where the inaugural vendors set up tables, barricades, and trash cans for the debut." - John Tsung
"I’m highlighting that Queens Together is hosting a food festival on Thursday, November 9 at the New York Hall of Science (47-01 111th Street at 48th Avenue). Tickets are $100 and include unlimited food and alcoholic beverages from about 30 restaurants; admission is free for children 12 and under, and proceeds support participating restaurants and Queens Together’s Thanksgiving food drive." - Luke Fortney
"A visit to the Queens Night Market wouldn’t be complete for me without stopping by the Moon Man stall selling Southeast Asian desserts. The Indonesian coconut pancake with Java palm sugar ($5 each, or three for $12) comes off the griddle warm and fluffy, with a fun contrasting crunch and chew you get from biting into the layer of blowtorched sugar and shredded coconut on top. Given the spot’s name and astronaut logo, it always seems fitting to enjoy this treat here, by the light of the moon and the blue-purple glow of the Hall of Science." - Eater Staff
"I see there's still no date on the calendar for the Queens Night Market’s full comeback at the New York Hall of Science in Flushing, which canceled its 2020 season due to the coronavirus pandemic, though an opening announcement could come in the next week or two." - Luke Fortney
"If you have a car, The New York Hall Of Science in Corona Park is showing outdoor screenings of The Sound Of Metal, My Octopus Teacher, and Minari this week as part of their Queens Drive-In series. Admission for all three Oscar-nominated movies is completely free, but you’ll have to reserve a spot for your car ahead of time here. Unfortunately, the only way to hear the movie’s sound is through an FM radio, so you will definitely need a car to attend. If you’re looking for other outdoor movie screening ideas (sans car), check out our recently-updated guide." - Hannah Albertine
