‘Vegan Night Market’ to host 15+ vendors at Owls Club

‘Vegan Night Market’ to host 15+ vendors at Owls Club

May 24, 20232 min read

What do you get when more than 15 food providers, businesses, and local foodies gather for an evening of vegan indulgence? Well, perhaps one of the coolest vegan get-togethers to grace downtown Tucson this year.

The Vegan Night Market, presented by Death Free Foodie and Tucson Foodie, is taking place at 7 p.m. on Saturday, June 3 at Owls Club, 236 S. Scott Ave.

From mouth-watering food and sweets to innovative cocktails, music, crafts, beauty products, and artful creations by our favorite local tattoo and nail artists, you’ll be immersed in a plant-based playground. Also, the Desert Island Records team will be on-site blasting toe-tappin’ tunes.

“I’m so excited about our first-ever vegan night market,” said Hannah Hernandez, AKA Death Free Foodie. “I can’t wait to see the energy and excitement of everyone exploring a ton of Tucson’s local vegan creations in Owls Clubs’ beautiful courtyard.”

Plus, to make it even more enticing, the Vegan Night Market is totally free to attend — pay for what want while walking around Owls Club’s indoor space and outdoor patio.

Not going to this event would be a huge missed steak. Make sure to bring olive your vegan (and non-vegan) friends, too. Okay, enough with the vegan puns. Below is the list of local businesses meeting up at the Vegan Night Market.

“I scream, you scream...oh, hush! In this warm weather town, there’s no need to scream for ice cream. This year-round favorite treat and its cool cousins, gelato, and sorbet are widely available in a variety of distinctive styles and flavors. You’ll also find more unusual fare such as Indian golas, a version of shaved ice.” — @ediebjarolim
