It's almost here, people! The OC Night Market is happening this weekend at the OC Fair & Events Center and it's the first time an event of this kind is happening there…well, if you don't count the Anatolian Festival and the OC Fair itself.
The people behind the wildly successful 626 Night Market is putting this event on, and it's the first event by them this year. This will be followed by a DTLA Night Market in June and the original 626 Night Market in July, August and September at Santa Anita Race Track.
The Original Ramen Burger will be there this weekend, at the fairgrounds, along with new vendors like Fusion Bites (and its pho sliders) and 200 other food purveyors, artists, musicians and the world's largest cup of boba milk tea.
There will also be and a dance competition Saturday night at one of the stages which, I'm told, will feature dance troupes like Kaba Modern vying for a $1000 prize.
