Natsu Nights

A Summer Night Market Series at the Japanese Friendship Garden & Museum

Set inside the Japanese Friendship Garden & Museum, this night market series transforms the garden into a different atmosphere. Explore layered landscapes as you move through the space after dark, and let the garden become a welcoming place where you can gather, linger, and spend time outside the usual routine. Wander winding pathways, sip on boba, and explore a rotating mix of themed vendors and activities that change throughout the series. Whether you’re here to romanticize your evenings, unwind from work, or hang out with friends, Natsu Nights is a summer must.

The Garden will have extended hours in the upper garden on select Saturdays from June through August, so you can experience the outdoors in perfect summer weather. Discounted admission is $5 from 5pm–8pm (upper garden only), with vendors on site from 12pm–8pm.
