Our story

Built by a Buckeye family, for the whole town.

Buckeye Night Market started with a simple want: a warm, welcoming place for Buckeye to gather after dark. Founder Melissa Calles started it as a mama of three, and it grew into a Friday-night tradition on 5th Street.

Two seasons in, 5th Street fills with the smell of street tacos, the glow of string lights, and neighbors doing the most old-fashioned thing there is, showing up for each other. Season three opens this September.

The night, in four parts

Come hungry.
Stay late.

Come for dinner, stay for the music, leave with something handmade and a full camera roll. Every market night is built around four simple things.

Food trucks & bites

Tacos, specialty drinks and rotating trucks from the Food Trucks Mafia lineup, plating dinner right as the sun goes down.

Makers & artisans

Handmade jewelry, candles, home décor, natural bath goods and fresh juices from West Valley small businesses.

Live music

Local musicians set the tone every market night, turning 5th Street into an open-air stage.

Family fun

Mini-golf, custom bracelet-making and space for the kids to roam. Built for strollers and grandparents alike.

5 PM to 9 PM

Stay till the
lights come on.

Golden hour to string lights, all in one evening. It is the best two hours of a Buckeye Friday, and the reason they call it a night market.
