Montreal's Asian night market is making a comeback in Chinatown, running every weekend for eight weeks starting August 12.

This year, the Asian street food festival in Montreal will take place beneath the twinkling lights of the Place des Souhaits installation, a massive wish tree with 1,000 coloured flags "inspired by traditional Cantonese operas," located at the corner of Boul. Saint-Laurent and Boul. René-Lévesque O.

Organizers have also partnered with La Pépinière | I Espaces Collectifs, a project organizer for public spaces in Montreal, and Quartier des Spectacles to present street food and programming.

Admission to the market is free and most street food prices will range from $4 to $8, with premium dishes costing between $9 and $12.

The list of vendors at the festival isn't available yet, but the organizers ask that merchants interested email marchedenuitmtl@gmail.com to secure their spots.
