The idea for the Kamloops Night Market was born out of a desire to bring something new and vibrant to our community. After living in Kamloops for some time, we realized that our city was missing the charm and excitement of an evening market—a place where people could gather after the sun sets, enjoy local foods, discover unique crafts, and experience the rich culture our area has to offer.
We envisioned a space that would come alive with energy after dark, offering a unique alternative to the usual daytime markets. It’s not just about shopping; it’s about creating a community hub where locals and visitors alike can connect, celebrate, and enjoy the atmosphere of a night out in Kamloops.
Our mission is to provide a platform for local artisans, food vendors, and performers to showcase their talents while giving the community a new and exciting way to experience the city. THE LOT YKA Night Market is more than just an event—it’s THE PLACE TO BE!
Join us May 2nd - Aug 22nd 2025 every second Friday night from 5:30-8:30!
