Warmer weather is ahead, New Yorkers, and with spring in full swing, and summer around the corner, that only means one thing: the return of street festivals. The Uptown Night Market in Harlem is slated to open this month, and rumor has it that this season will be bigger and better than ever.

The Uptown Night Market is a celebration of the city's diverse culinary and cultural offerings and features dozens of food vendors serving up delicious and unique dishes from around the world. From mouth-watering tacos and empanadas to sweet and savory crepes and bubble tea, there's something to satisfy every craving.

But the market isn't just about the food. It also showcases the city's vibrant arts and culture scene. Visitors can browse a variety of handmade crafts and goods from local artisans and vendors and enjoy live music performances and family-friendly activities throughout the season.
