Best Night Markets in Calgary
Calgary's night markets are a summer-only ritual — they run roughly May through September on warm evenings, with local makers, food trucks, live music, and beer gardens. Every market below is a recurring seasonal series (specific 2026 dates included where confirmed); none run year-round, so check each market's site before heading out. Note: Calgary's Chinatown hosts a popular summer Street Festival (third Saturday of August) rather than a dedicated recurring night market.
