Night Market Moves to Kino Sports Complex South

The Tucson Asian Night Market once again moves to a larger venue to accommodate its growing popularity. For the spring event, the Kino Sports Complex South offers more space for the anticipated crowd. That previously free event had 8,000-10,000 attendees, so ticket sales have been implemented with a cap at 4,000 for a smoother experience. Get tickets here.
