Levitown Market: The New Night Market of Lipa

The new night market of Lipa is opening this coming Oct 1st located at the back of newly opened Jollibee in Marawoy. This is different from the previous Lipa night market in P Torres Street.

Levitown Market will be managed by Leviste family headed by the former Vice Governor of Batangas, Mark Leviste. They will cater the same demographic of the previous night market. It will also offer food, drinks, clothing, and more but will be operational for almost 24 hours. Also in the pipeline is the possibility of having a free wifi connection to its customers.

Will Levitown Market equal or surpass the popularity of the previous night market especially now that the same group is operating just few meters away from Levitown? Nevertheless, this will be a good welcome back for those who missed going to the night market.
