Top Ten New Jersey Events for the Weekend:
Midnight Market – Mar 17th
Midnight Market is a concept that was developed by two long-time Jersey City residents. Growing tired of the need to go into NYC for exciting evening events, they decided to organize the area’s first indoor night market and foodie nightlife event. This night market features 20 food vendors from NJ and NYC bringing with them innovative and international offerings. In addition to amazing food and drinks, Midnight Market breaks out into a full blown dance party! The DJ plays the perfect mix of old school jams and those J. Biebs tracks we know you secretly love. The beauty of it all is that Lincoln is king at Midnight Market. All the food is $5 or less, as well as the drinks and the entrance fee. So bring CASH and your ID, because this 21 and older event is a cash only.
