    Description

    CID Night Market Volunteer

    About the event

    Chinatown-International District Business Improvement Area (CIDBIA) hosts the oldest large-scale Night Market in Seattle! Seattle’s Chinatown-International District will awaken to a vibrant Night Market. People will take to the streets to mingle and soak in the neighborhood from a variety of food vendors and handmade local crafts. Music and entertainment will perform throughout the day as crowds dance into the sunset.

    Night Market cannot happen without our volunteers! Volunteers help support event operations, guest experience, setup, stage management, photography, cleanup, and more.

    Every volunteer receives a T-Shirt, meal and hours towards community/school service hours if needed. Ask us for a signature. Call us at 206-571-3436 or email us at events@cidbia.org with any questions. We hope to see you there! CIDBIA - Night Market Team
