If you thought the third annual Bellevue New Year’s Eve Night Market was just about ringing in 2025 with good food, great shopping, and a lively crowd of 9,000, think again! This beloved community event has officially turned celebration into impact, raising an incredible $15,000 for Bellevue LifeSpring. The funds were generated from the event’s beer and wine garden, which was hosted by—and directly benefited—Bellevue LifeSpring, along with proceeds from the NYE celebration.
AHG Cares, the philanthropic arm of Bellevue-based Ascend Hospitality Group, spearheaded the NYE Night Market with the goal of bringing the community together while supporting local artists, businesses, and charities. With help from key partners like Amazon, the City of Bellevue, Visit Bellevue, and Workshop Events, the night was not only a massive success—it also made a meaningful difference.
With each year bigger and better than the last, the Bellevue NYE Night Market has proven to be more than just a party. It’s a celebration with heart, and we can’t wait to see what 2026 brings!
