Richmond Night Market

This was my first time at the Richmond Night Market, and it was such a fun experience! I already expected the food to be pricey, so definitely bring plenty of cash. There’s a huge variety of food—mostly Asian cuisine, but we also found a great Mexican food stand. Tons of carnival-style games to try too! Admission is $7 CAD per person, or you can get a fast pass for $35 that covers 5 people. If you don’t have a group for the fast pass, I’d recommend going early to avoid the long lines. They even have a zip line, although it wasn’t open during our visit. Overall, a lively place to eat, play, and explore!

I went to the Richmond Night Market for the first time (I am from US) and it was a great experience!! It is way better than night markets in the states. The only long line was to get inside. Once we were in, we waited no longer than 5 minutes in a line and the food came out really quick! It’s so much cheaper than US food festivals as well so we were able to try a bunch of different things for a good price. I would 100% come again. It was well worth the drive.

A long time has passed since I last visited the Richmond Night Market. I was impressed by the significant improvements since my last visit a few years ago. The quality of the products has improved, and there are now more games and bigger food stands. There are even activities for kids, such as a bounce castle and a zipline. Among all the food, the Korean BBQ chicken skewers stood out. They came in four flavors, and I tried two of them: a sweet and savory sauce and a galbi flavor. It was a shame they were sold out the second time I visited, and I couldn't get more. I also remember the Dubai chocolate-covered strawberry cups from the dessert section. I wish this was a menu item at a cafe near me! The market runs every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 7 p.m. to 12 a.m., from May through October. The lines get incredibly long, so you must buy a Zoom Pass! The regular admission is $4.75, while the Zoom Pass costs $28.00 for six entries. Since it's unlikely you'll go six times alone, you can offer to share the pass with friends, family, or even other couples or families in line. They'll likely be happy to join you and get through the express lane without the long wait.

Night Market is such a fun place! Definitely planning to come back when we’re in town. Best time is to come 30 min- 1 hr before the Happy Hour starts at 10pm. Then just walk, eat, walk eat lol play games.

The Richmond Night Market is a perfect date night, or place to get a variety of foods from Friday to Sunday. There is free parking, or you can take transit, the entrance fee is $5, and I would highly recommend that you bring cash, as some stalls only take cash. There's games, food, live entertainment, and stalls that sell clothing and accessories. It's definitely worth a visit as it's only available for a few months of the year.

Quite a nice night market with a variety of things to do, but certainly pricey. There's lots of food stalls, an arcade, and seating. I expected it to be even larger because I think it had fewer stalls than the ones in Toronto, but given that it runs every weekend, it's quite large, and maybe the more spacious area made it feel less crowded despite the line to get in. The ramen donut was a bit disappointing as it was smaller and less special than I imagined. All the food was pretty good in general though. I think it's still worth visiting, but temper your expectations as well because it isn't the same as night markets in east asia or the one-weekend ones elsewhere

Very great night market! The Richmond Night Market was one of best night markets I have ever been too, really great food and interesting stalls to look around, highly recommend you try this market out for yourselves!

We spent 120$ on 8 items + 2 tickets, in 3 hours. We went there on a Sunday at 6:40 and got inside at 7:10. It was crowded but not annoying, it took 0-2 minutes to order each item and 2-10 to get them. Everything we ate was pretty good (tip: definitely take cash with you) all together it's expensive and crowded but it's still so much fun with lots of interesting foods, i think it worth it and will definitely go back again to try more things! #1 beef skewer #2 Birria grilled cheese #3 Birria taco #4 Chocolate bubble tea #5 Beef momo with hot sauce #6 Dynamite Sushi taco #7 Cheese Tteokbokki
