November 1, 2021

The Inglewood Night Market is hosting its second annual Holiday Night Market! 

Get ready to shop local this holiday season every Friday from Nov. 12 to Dec. 3.

November, 2021 [ CALGARY, AB ] We’re excited to announce that the Inglewood Night Market is returning as the ‘Holiday Night Market’ for the second consecutive year. The market will be taking place on Friday, November 12, 19, 26, and December 3, 2021, inside the retail space beneath the South Bank apartment complex along 9th avenue. Each market will offer shoppers the opportunity to purchase their holiday gifts from over 60 local makers, artists, and small businesses, while enjoying live entertainment all evening long. Tickets are $5 and the latest COVID restrictions and protocols will apply — this is an indoor event.

“We are looking forward to welcoming the public into our market space and hope everyone can get their holiday shopping list completed a little bit early this year! We have a fantastic lineup of handmade one-of-kind vendors participating, and attendees can expect the same caliber of event they’ve come to love from our outdoor markets. We hope to see you at one or all four of the dates,” Shannon McNally, Night Market Event Producer.

The first Holiday Night Market took place in November of 2020 and was a huge success. Sadly, it was cut short due to current COVID safety restrictions at the time. This year the market will be implementing its regular mandatory masking policy and asking market-goers for proof of vaccination prior to entering the market.

With limited capacity and strict indoor numbers to adhere to, tickets will go fast. Shoppers can purchase their tickets for their desired date and time here

SUPPORTING LOCAL MUSICIANS 

Calgary’s performers, entertainers, and musicians have always been a huge part of the Inglewood Night Market. Not only do they give the market its well-known vibrant energy, but they have always been avid supporters and one of the reasons the Night Market has thrived in the city all these years. For this reason, it’s paramount for the market to give back to the local community, and help get these musicians back on the stage. 

A portion of the ticket sales from the Holiday Night Market will be donated to Music Mile Revival to help the artists who were impacted by COVID-19. We are also thrilled to be hosting live music all evening long during each of the four Holiday Night Markets. 

MARKET SAFETY REGULATIONS 

The Holiday Night Market will be adhering to the COVID-19 public health restrictions implemented by the Alberta Government and Alberta Health Services while participating in the vaccine exemption program. We are determined to ensure this is a healthy, safe, and fun experience for all! 

Thank you in advance for following these guidelines. We are doing our best to provide Calgary with a magical market experience that prioritizes the health and safety of everyone while reconnecting our local community!

COVID-19 Response UPDATE: Inglewood Night Market 

April 13 [ CALGARY, AB ] 

 

Dear Calgary, 

Through recent events surrounding the COVID-19 virus, we have been forced to consider the possibility of what the future for the 2020 Inglewood Night Market will be. Due to the instructions of The City of Calgary and the Public Health Agency of Canada’s mass gathering risk assessment protocol we have made the decision to reschedule the June Night Market to a new date in July 2020 (TBD). 

 

What does this mean? 

For market attendees: As of right now, nothing about the market will be any different. Our team and board are closely monitoring the situation and staying cautiously optimistic that the Night Market will be able to proceed as usual on the rescheduled dates. We will continue to post updates on our website and our social media channels. 

For Vendors + Entertainment: We will be in close contact with you to ensure the change of date is a quick and seamless process. Please keep an eye open for an email regarding the next steps on your end, along with any news and updates that we receive regarding this tragic situation in the meantime. 

We realize the hardships that are a result of this pandemic and we want you to know we are doing our very best to ensure that we are making decisions with our health, safety, and the overall well-being of our city in mind. We’re committed to being both responsive and responsible as we navigate these times and do our part to support the local businesses, artisans, and makers who rely on festivals and shows such as this one to survive. Please continue to share these posts, stay current with the latest updates, and support local whenever possible. We couldn’t do what we do without you and we can’t wait to see this fear lifted and our city thriving once again!

COVID-19 Response: Inglewood Night Market 

MARCH 14 [ CALGARY, AB ] 

Dear Calgary, 

Through recent events surrounding the COVID-19 virus, we have been forced to consider the possibility of what the future for the 2020 Inglewood Night Market will be. Currently, as it stands, Alberta is in a low-risk situation, but is taking extreme precautionary efforts to ensure the virus is contained and hopefully short-lived. 

Please see Alberta’s latest public health advisories here

Right now our team at Urban Production Group are closely monitoring the situation and staying cautiously optimistic that the Inglewood Night Market will be able to proceed as usual this summer. We have been in close communication with the City of Calgary and will be moving forward in the best possible manner to adhere to the Public Health Agency of Canada’s mass gathering risk assessment protocol. We will continue to plan the execution of this much-loved market, but will be making future decisions regarding how we will move forward once we have more information in the upcoming days.  

Thank you Calgary for always being our biggest fans! We would not be able to continue to host the Inglewood Night Market if it wasn’t for your unwavering love and loyalty that you have shown us throughout the years. This international pandemic has hit every city on a local level harder than anyone could have planned for. It’s our mission through our events to always find ways to strengthen and rally behind local independent businesses, makers, and artisans – and that doesn’t stop now. Our local community needs us more than ever and any support you can offer truly makes a world of difference. Let’s gather together (metaphorically) and come out of this stronger than ever before!
