The Quiet Magic of Winter Night

Welcome to Night Pop, a concept that reimagines how we spend our winter evenings. This is not your typical night market. There are no vendors, no transactions, and no alcohol. Instead, we offer an alternative space that invites you to bask in the quiet, warm glow of community and calm.




What is Night Pop?

Every Friday from 7 to 9 pm, we transform a small corner of Nelson into a cozy, inviting sanctuary. Think of it as a brief escape from the hustle and bustle, a place where warm lights illuminate the night, and soft music fills the air. It's a free space, meticulously crafted to be clean and serene, where the focus is on connection and tranquility.
