A Link train pulls into BelRed Station

Ride the 2 Line to the BelRed Arts Night Market

Publish Date

Bellevue’s BelRed Arts District is about to shine. On Aug. 23 from 3–9 p.m., the very first BelRed Arts Night Market will transform the area around BelRed Station into a festival of art, culture, music, and food.

And the best part? You can get there easily on the new 2 Line. Step off the train at BelRed Station and you’re right at the market. 

Coming from Redmond or downtown Bellevue? Skip the parking hunt and ride straight in. If you need to drive part of the way, park at any 2 Line station and take the train the rest of the way — it’s simple, stress-free, and perfect for a night out.

A stage full of talent

From K-pop to Taiko drumming, you’ll experience an eclectic lineup of local and global performances, including headliner and Seattle’s rising hip-hop powerhouse Vic Daggs II. 

Explore the market

Browse more than 30 booths featuring local artists, handmade crafts, cultural goods, and community organizations. It’s a one-stop shop to discover creativity rooted in Bellevue’s diverse community.

Try a new food truck

Come hungry — the food alone is worth the trip. This year’s lineup includes:

  • Tabassum – Central Asian favorites like crispy samsa hand pies and steamed manti dumplings

  • Isidro’s – Authentic Mexican street food crafted with fresh ingredients and tradition

  • Off the Rez – Seattle’s first Native food truck, serving fry bread tacos and Indigenous-inspired flavors

Don’t miss your chance to be part of this first-ever celebration of Bellevue’s arts, food, and culture.
