Valorant is a 5v5 ability-based strategic shooter from Riot Games. Since its release in 2020, the game has soon become one of the most played FPS titles out there. Aside from dynamic gameplay, Valorant has also captured the heart of its player base by releasing exclusive premium skins.
While skins in Valorant get sold at their full price, the skins are still expensive for a large chunk of players. To make skins affordable for them, Riot Games brings in the night market to Valorant every act. If you're wondering when the next market is going to start, then you have come to the right place.
When is the Next Night Market in Valorant?
The next Valorant night market is expected to go live on May 7, 2026, and will end on May 28, 2026. The previous night market ended in March 2026. Each night market usually goes on for two weeks.
You'll find the Night Market at the top right corner of Valorant's opening screen. It appears as soon as it's available, marked by a sparkling card logo that's hard to miss! Just click on the icon to access the Valorant Night Market.
When you flip the cards on the screen, you can see which skins are available and their discounted prices. The quality of each skin depends on the background colour of the card and a small shape in the corner.
The skins are completely random, but Riot Games has introduced the Bad Luck Protection Guarantee since the Night Market's debut in 2020. This ensures that players who don't own every Premium Edition skin can expect to find at least two in the Night Market.
The exclusive and ultra-tier skins won't appear in the night market. Moreover, recently released skins from the previous two acts of the game won't appear for your night market. This makes it much more likely you get a select or deluxe skin, which no one wants in the first place.
