The Tacoma Night Market has four more Saturday markets on the calendar this year at the Mothership in South Tacoma: Nov. 14, Nov. 28, Dec. 12 and Dec. 19, 2026, each from 5 to 10 p.m. Like every Night Market, they’re free and open to all ages.
The market brings local artists and makers together every other weekend all year, with 40 to 50 vendors at each one in indoor and outdoor booths. The organizers promise music, drinks and local food alongside the makers’ tables. They don’t publish a food vendor list ahead of each market, and their own vendor guide notes that food lines can get long when the market is busy, so eating early is the easier plan.
With two of the dates in mid-December, these markets are a good fit for holiday shopping from local makers. The Night Market has also raised money for Pacific Northwest nonprofits since it began, and its website lists the organizations it has worked with.
Sunday Drag Market
Each Saturday night market is followed the next day by the Sunday Drag Market in the same building, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. This season’s Sunday dates are Nov. 15, Nov. 29, Dec. 13 and Dec. 20. Like the Saturday market, it’s free and all ages.
Two of the Saturday dates, Nov. 28 and Dec. 12, line up with the Black Night Market’s Holidaze holiday markets at the Tacoma Armory on the Hilltop, which run from 4 to 10 p.m. Anyone planning a full night of market-hopping can catch both.
Getting there
The Mothership sits on the corner of South 54th Street and Washington Street and uses two addresses: 5407 S. Washington St. and 3612 S. 54th St. The organizers take questions by email at [email protected].
