I came here July 2018, and it was surprisingly lit. Did not have expectations going in and was pleasantly surprised. Lots of vendors - diversity in food booths and cultures represented. Some booths sold cultural items and were very interesting. The performances were WOW. read more

First time to this event on a beautiful August evening. Event opens at 5 p.m and closes at 10 p.m. Event is popular and inclusive of the many diverse cultures in the area. Plenty of people. Come early. Highlights: * Free admission * Plenty of food and drink stands with variety of flavors to suite diverse tastes and dietary needs * Unique hand made crafts from around the world * Organized event staff - helpful, ready to answer any questions * Max train station close by * Interesting performances at the two stages with many international themes * Activities for kids and adults * Free give-aways from some exhibiting organizations * Accessible ATM and restrooms * Plenty of information to learn about other cultures * Good music and vibes Lowlights: * Long lines for food - especially at popular food stands like the Himalayan Dumplings * Parking - this event is popular and parking lots around the area get full. Event parking is not encouraged in surrounding parking lot. Didn't see a dedicated event parking area. Use Max train if possible * Some vendors up-charge items and only take cash. * Not enough seating areas to watch the performances at the main stage * Crowded - be comfortable being very close to people and possibly rubbing shoulders. If you are in the area, bookmark this event. I found it worthwhile, enjoyed it, and learned a lot. Check their website for event details and dates. Bring cash and an empty stomach to taste all the different foods and drinks. read more

Beaverton Night Market was a pilot event which was one of its kind! Great concept, food stalls, musical performances! Ethiopian, Mediterranean, Mexican were some food stalls. Great job done by BNM and volunteers!! BNM got a very good response but it was over crowded with not to many vendors and less space for the event. I am sure it will be well organized next year!! I wonder why it is just for one day!! They should have it spread out for more weekends next time onwards. Looking forward to many more such community events!! read more

I was very surprised by this event. I thought it would probably be boring merchants with wares that you didn't want and just be really run-of-the-mill. I was very wrong. I was impressed by the diversity of the vendors as well as the crowd. It was such a treat to see so many different cultures coming together and having such a good time. Wonderful performers, music, food... I would definitely recommend more vendors to keep up with the very large crowds who obviously want to make a lot of purchases. The lines were very long to keep up with the very large crowds who obviously want to make a lot of purchases. The lines were very long. I also would suggest maybe some smoothie vendors, even more merchants, dessert or sweet Treats for sale... Perhaps using a larger space since this was overwhelmingly full. I look forward to seeing what next year has to offer. Maybe even doing more of them! read more

I went there with great ,. I don't know what I was expecting. Maybe I was expecting too much. First of all, it was hard finding barking, and it took me a few times around the various blocks to find a spot. I had to walk a great distance to the market which I enjoyed actually. When I got there, it was so crowded, that you could hardly walk. There were few food vendors and few ethnic activities which were very cool. I wish they had more food choices, but I don't know where they would have fit them in. I enjoyed some of that food vendors that were there though. read more

This place just got too popular for its own good, unfortunately. We were really looking forward to coming here, but the lines for food were too long. We stood in line for boba tea because it was a million degrees out, but even that took 25 minutes. I suggest more food vendors or do like they have at the farmer's market in Beaverton and have beverage only stations. A few vendors even ran out of food by 7pm! I also think this market is too popular for its location- we got there on the "early" side (5:30pm) and it was shoulder to shoulder in 90 degree heat. It was just too hot to stand in line the whole time. They have improved parking options and shuttle which is great, but they need more space please. It was also too crowded to even look at the merchandise booths so we did not do any shopping. I felt bad for those people. I don't know if we'll be back in August. To be completely honest you're better off just hitting the Beaverton farmer's market on Saturday mornings. read more

This outdoor cross cultural festival was located in the small area between the parking garage and the max station. I applaud the concept behind this festival. It was very welcoming. Who ever did the marketing and advertising for this event did a great job because the event was packed, too packed. The RSVP for this event on their FB page was 4.7 thousand. I don't know if there were that many people but I just know that we could not walk in the sea of people. We appreciated the free parking garage but it was so narrow and compact that I swear that parking garage was designed for compact cars only. So I think the count of vendor booths was less than 20 and prob less than 10 for food. I overheard that vendors were running out of food. We saw asian food, middle eastern food, african food, great concept, they just needed 10x the number of food stalls. Other stands were selling their goods like handmade soaps, generic and whimsical gift items, essential oils nothing exciting. I think the only place we purchased stuff was the eastern european stand. We purchased a hungarian cookbook for a friend. The music was good! We enjoyed all the performances such as the African drumming, and the Mbrascatu band. All in all it is a great concept. If they continue this event they need a professional event planner, and larger venue....like 10x's the size than that of the little space it was in. I read many complaints on their FB page about the crowdedness of this fest. Most people, myself included only stayed 10 minutes and had a better time across the street at the flea market. Sadly I was hoping this fest was a lot more than what it was. I will say it did bring people from all walks of life together for an evening, which was the point behind this fest in the first place. read more

Very nice concept of utilizing the Beaverton Central area as a central stage for the cultural performance show. There were a lot of people, but not enough food vendors, so lines were very long for food. It was nice to check it out and hang out for a bit. Great place to bring your family and watch all the cultural performance on stage. This events happens twice this last year, perhaps it will be the same next year? Definitely gets crowded, but what a great way to get Beaverton locals together! read more

Giving this a 3 star review and let me explain why it is not higher. 1. The concept is very nice. Big multicultural event with food and craft/trinket vendors. 2. Way too big for the space they have allocated. Basically the event has gotten too big. Difficult to get around the venue. 3. Not nearly enough food vendors. The lines for food were 15 min long in some cases, and sorry to say, the food vendors weren't very efficient either. Not sure if it was because they were not expecting big crowds or if they never had a booth before. Very frustrating because there was lots of food I wanted to try, but the lines were just too long to make it worth waiting. Not sure I will go the next time. Great idea, just poorly executed. read more
