Missoula’s First Asian Night Market
The Missoula Moonlight Market is an Asian Night Market celebrating the richness and diversity of Asian cultures through food, music, art, and storytelling. This community-centered event uplifts Asian voices and traditions while creating a welcoming space for everyone to gather and connect.
This event is more than a market. It is a joyful, community-centered space that uplifts Asian culture, food, art, music, and storytelling here in Missoula. Your support helps us create a welcoming and vibrant experience where representation, connection, and celebration can truly shine.
Joy is resistance. Food is connection. Community is power.
Looking to support Missoula Moonlight Market?
We are thrilled to share that the Missoula Moonlight Market, Missoula’s first Asian Night Market, is officially underway—and we are seeking sponsors and supporters to help us bring this celebration to life on Saturday, May 9 at Caras Park in Downtown Missoula.
Your partnership strengthens this first-of-its-kind event and helps build a tradition that celebrates diversity, belonging, and community joy. Financial support will be used to rent the space, vendor support and other general operating costs. Additional funds will go towards future community events. Missoula Moonlight Market is organized and run by volunteers.
Become a Vendor
We are very excited to invite you to be a part of Missoula's first Asian Night Market —a celebration of the richness and diversity of Asian cultures in Montana.
Like any good dish, this event brings together different flavors and spices, lineages and histories, talents and traditions to create something brand new and delicious. Vendors of all kinds —whether you serve delicious food, create handmade goods, or offer another invaluable service to our community —are welcome to apply.
Vendors will be selected by a first-come, first-basis. Not all vendors will receive a spot at this time. Our hope is to continue the Moonlight Market on a regular basis in the future. So if your application is not selected this time, please be on the lookout for the next time around. Selected vendors will be invited by end of February. Vendors then must confirm interest and submit payment by March 15th.
