Expect the InterNASHional Night Market you love, just bigger!!
We are so excited to announce that the 6th annual InterNASHional Night Market will be presented by Nashville Soccer Club. We are heading to Geodis Park to host Wedgewood Houston's first local international food festival, and we will be celebrating the 2026 World Cup while we're at it!
This event will feature dozens of local and international restaurateurs, artisanal vendors, and cultural performers for an exciting event of tastings, entertainment, and community. Hosted by the Tennessee Immigrant & Refugee Rights Coalition (TIRRC), the InterNASHional Night Market has quickly become one of Nashville’s can't-miss, family-friendly events of the year.
Not only will the event be themed around the 2026 World Cup, but it will also feature a Kids’ Zone and non-food artisanal vendors.
DISCOVER YOUR NEXT FAVORITE RESTAURANT
The InterNASHional Night Market is the signature event of TIRRC’s annual InterNASHional Food Series which brings diverse communities together to build cross-cultural connections and understanding and to celebrate the culinary art of dozens of Nashville’s finest immigrant and refugee restaurant entrepreneurs. This series is a mission-advancing fundraiser that supports TIRRC’s Belonging work (formerly Welcoming Tennessee Initiative (WTI)) throughout the year. Our Belonging program involves events and activities seeking to build solidarity between immigrant and non-immigrant communities in Nashville and beyond.
TIRRC’s staff members spend time in the months before the InterNASHional Night Market building relationships with restaurant owners, immigrant and refugee chefs, artisan vendors, and cultural performance groups, reaching new community members and connecting them to our mission and services. Each year, hundreds of guests from the greater Nashville community join us for a night of culinary exploration, diversity, and community building.
