2025 International Night Market Series is back for another season in the ViBe Creative District The International Night Market is back! Rooted in the heart of the ViBe Creative District, this cultural series returns to celebrate the global diversity of Virginia Beach. Each event will highlight the international flavors, spotlighting diverse artists, musicians, food trucks and vendors from around the world, all coming together to ignite community pride, fuel local business and create a space where everyone belongs. The 2025 season opens with Latino Night on Friday, May 16th from 6:00 to 10:00 PM at 723 20th Street, beside Dwell in the ViBe Apartments. In collaboration with the ViBe Creative District and the City of Virginia Beach, this family-friendly evening will transform the 20th Street cul-de-sac into an open air cultural block party. Guests can expect vibrant live music, energetic dance performances, local artisan vendors, hands-on art, games and activities for all ages, and a global lineup of food trucks offering authentic flavors from across Latin America. Inspired by the spirit of street festivals found in cities like São Paulo, Cartagena, and San Juan, the Night Market is more than an event, it is a celebration of identity, culture, and connection. The series is spearheaded by Victor Leite of Dwell, a Brazilian-born entrepreneur and active member of the Friends of the Creative District business association, who has made it his mission to create space for international voices to be seen, heard, and honored. Each Night Market will spotlight a different cultural heritage, including celebrations of African, Asian & Pacific Islander, Indian, Middle Eastern, and European communities. Together, they represent the colorful mosaic of cultures that give Virginia Beach its vibrant, creative, and uniquely connected heartbeat The organizers invite everyone, from across the region, to come out and experience the rhythms, stories, and flavors of our world. This is a space for shared humanity, meaningful connection, and creative joy.
