If you're coming down to enjoy time with friends and family, while embracing local vendors, it's absolutely free!!! If you're wanting to become a vendor for the event, there is a cost associated with that. 🙂
How can I become a vendor for the Night Market!?
The easiest way for you to find out information about how to become a Kearney Night Market vendor is to go to our vendor page. You can do that by clicking on the "Vendor Registration" button on the top right of this website or by going to this website address: http://KearneyNightMarket.com/Vendors
Can we carry alcohol around on the streets?
No, currently the City of Kearney does not allow open containers on the streets. During our special events, we will have a beer garden (a social drinking space confined within barricades). So, if you go inside of the Cunningham’s beer garden to grab a beer, you’ll need to drink it there and then come back to the market!
