OC Night Market 2026 — Orange County
The OC Night Market returns to OC Fair & Event Center in Costa Mesa for multiple weekends throughout summer and fall 2026, one of the most popular Asian night market experiences in Southern California. The market brings together over 200 food vendors, artisan sellers, performers, and entertainment across a sprawling outdoor festival ground that comes alive after dark. Food is the draw. Vendors span all of Southeast Asia, East Asia, and fusion concepts: Korean corn dogs, Taiwanese popcorn chicken, Vietnamese banh mi, Japanese takoyaki, Filipino bibingka, Hong Kong egg waffles, Thai rolled ice cream, and dozens of innovative hybrids that exist nowhere else. Lines form early for the most popular stalls — arrive by 6 PM for best access before the crowds peak. Beyond food, the market features live K-pop performances, a DJ stage, merchandise vendors with streetwear, phone cases, plushies, and art prints, and an activity zone with carnival-style games. The atmosphere is dense, loud, and celebratory — a distinct cultural experience that captures the energy of Asian night markets at a SoCal scale. OC Fair & Event Center is located at 88 Fair Drive in Costa Mesa. Paid parking on-site. Admission is charged at the gate — see ocnightmarket.com for dates, hours, and pricing. Multiple weekends run throughout the season; check for specific event dates.

The LA County Fair returns to Fairplex in Pomona for its 2026 season, spanning roughly five weeks from late August through early October. The largest county fair in the United States is also one of the most enduring summer-to-fall traditions in Southern California. Over two million visitors walk through Fairplex each year, making it a cultural institution that cuts across every community in the Los Angeles basin.
