CITY of NIGHT, a one-night multi-disciplinary art event, takes place at a grouping of historic, privately-owned grain elevators on the Buffalo River, just off Ohio Street. Emerging Leaders in the Arts Buffalo toured the space in fall of 2011, envisioning a large art event there. What we did not know was the enormity of public response that was to follow: we hosted 3,500 attendees at our first event in September, 2012 and 12,000 at our event last July!

With art installations in and outside the grain elevators, live music, theater and dance performance, an art fair, interactive art and cultural booths, food trucks, beer and wine tent, and water taxi and bike valet, the event has something for everyone.

We are thrilled to be launching this, our third-year event, with a VIP Preview Night on Friday, June 27th, 8-11pm (tickets available soon) and main event on Saturday, June 28th, 4pm-1am. We are improving the infrastructure, adding new and incredible talent to the roster, and offering unparalleled experiences. Come share your CITY of NIGHT with us.
