There’s nothing better than an evening of music, food and community. The annual H & 8th Night Market is coming up soon, and you’ll want to put it on your calendar so you don’t miss it.
The H & 8th Night Market started in 2011 with just three food trucks and 200 or so attendees. Now, it’s the largest food truck festival in the entire United States, with as many as 40,000 people joining in on the fun.

Festival organizers encourage people to ride their bikes to the Night Market event. Not only does that cut down on annoying traffic, but riding your bike through the neighborhood helps you feel like you’re really part of the community.
