Richmond Night Market

The Richmond Night Market is a perennial event and cultural artifact for Vancouver, being a celebration of food, treats and Asian nostalgia.A FAST pass is available for purchase for about $35 but many also purchase it. There is priority for entry but I would say it is debatable if it makes a significant difference.Parking is good only if you arrive early. It is a very large lot but there will be huge crowds attending. Parking attendants are around to help route traffic and cars.Vendors change every year although there are a few annual repeats. Savory food options, cold desserts and fun drinks are all on offer. Just bring lots of cash. While there are ATMs on site, there are fees associated with withdrawal.Check out the pop up shops as well as there are interesting items for sale and memorabilia. Many are cute and suitable for kids and youth.Washrooms are adequate with both temporary and semi permanent ones present.

Literally the best night in a while! The food was delicious, wasn’t a fan of the ramen.. it was just for the gram!But everything else was delicious!The butter beer was MY FAVOURITE!! It’s non-alcoholic tooThe vibes were so good and was such a pleasant evening..

A great variety of Asian snacks and food. Pretty pricey (even for an American living in NYC), which I guess is normal for fairs. There's a pass that they sell at the entrance for 5 people that's a bit cheaper than buying 5 admissions individually and it lets you skip the line to go in

Went there on a weekend it gets very busy. We didn't know about the zoom pass, but it's definitely worth it if you are a group of 5. They only sell 5 entrances zoom pass only. So unless you plan use it all, just buy the regular and wait in line. It's a headache to get there so it's better to use skytrain.Most of the food stand is good. Wide selection. One of the best night market!

It's ok. I think food is a bit overly priced. But expected in these events. The plate of octopus below is 19.00.Cash only. 8.00 entrance fee. They also had lots of great hand crafted jewellery and I got a good deal on socks! It's worth seeing if visiting Vancouver and you've never been here before.

My second visit to the Richmond night market was just as exciting as the first, with a wide variety of food vendors and bustling crowds. Despite our efforts to pre-order entry tickets, we couldn't find them on the website and ended up going without them. However, we were lucky to have a staff member inform us about the new Zoom Pass, which grants priority entry and shorter line-ups for holders.At $35 for five visits, the pass proved to be a cost-effective choice for us. We purchased two for our group of seven, leaving three visits for friends. The kids were thrilled with the prospect of trying out different foods and didn't mind queuing up for their favourites. While the ramen donuts didn't impress me, my personal favourite was the deep-fried chicken skin. My daughter was fond of the candy-coated orange, and my son couldn't stop devouring the curled fries. My husband, on the other hand, was content with fresh coconut water.The kids had a blast, and my son has already been pestering me to go again next year. Despite the crowds, the ambience and food options at the Richmond night market make it a must-visit spot for any foodie.

Went here on a Friday and arrived 30 min before doors open. It wasn’t too bad of a wait. You pay $8 at the front per adult. Parking was plentiful and free when we arrived and we didn’t have issues exiting either. It quickly became crowded around 8 or so. When we left at 10pm, there was still a line to get in. The carnival type games felt rigged, of course. My kid enjoyed the constant bubbles from the bubble machine, which is a helpful distraction when my husband and I wanted to concentrate on eating! Majority of the booths were cash only but they have plenty of ATMs nearby. Seating is available but limited. Share if you can! All food vendors were pretty fast and not much of a long wait.

It was interesting. Lots of choices for food. Entrance fee was $35 for four ( we bought the zoom pass to avoid the crazy line). Food vendors were mainly overpriced for the quality and quantity. Boa buns were good and entertaining.

One of the best places to visit in lower mainland during summer. Keep in mind it’s Not Free to enter to market.( $8 per adult) or buy a zoom Pass(can accommodate 5 adults). You should have Cash only in most stores , even though Some stores are taking card payments. Don’t worry there are ATM machines if you forget to take cash. The market offers a wide variety of foods, drinks and games. Overall, it was a good experience and lot of varieties of food.

This year's night market has creative LED displays, and a few new games. Food still tastes good but the prices has increased by around 20%. Great place to socialize and indulge with the crowd. I recommend zoom pass, it's a dollar extra but you can save a lot of time from a long line up. You just have to find 5 people who's willing to share the pass with you.
