Dartford will once again host its popular Night Food Market on Friday 12 th  June, transforming the town centre into a vibrant celebration of flavour, live entertainment, and community spirit. 

Visitors will be able to taste their way around the world, including delicious dishes from local suppliers, a tempting selection of sweet treats, and refreshing drinks from a well-stocked bar. A central seating area will provide the perfect place for families and friends to relax, soak up the atmosphere, and enjoy the evening together. 

This year’s event will also feature a lively World Cup football theme, adding an extra layer of excitement to the celebrations. 
Organised by Dartford Borough Council in partnership with Cohesion Plus, the Night Food Market promises something for everyone. The packed programme of entertainment includes a football freestyler, jungle drummer, saxophonist and DJ, as well as face painters, children’s rides, and a gaming bus. Visitors can also enjoy fun giveaways, along with a unique opportunity to experience Dartford’s
thriving community spirit, support local traders, and a fun-filled evening in the town centre. 

Leader of the Council Jeremy Kite said: “We’re excited to see Dartford’s Night Food Market return, and this year’s World Cup theme is the perfect match for what promises to be a fantastic evening. It’s a brilliant mix of great food, live entertainment, and community spirit, plus a wonderful opportunity to support local businesses while enjoying a fun, family-friendly night out in the town centre.”
