Night markets are a common and popular retail venue in Southeast Asian countries. This study aims to explore the popular night market visiting behaviors of people in Taiwan through a leisure motivation perspective. This study not only develops a research framework for overall visitors, but also divides visitors into domestic tourists and local residents, and further compares the different effects between these two groups to reveal the moderating effects resulting from visitor type. The empirical results show that for overall visitors, social, relaxation, intellectual, and competence-mastery leisure motivations can significantly influence visitors’ satisfaction toward tourist night markets. Besides, destination satisfaction has a positive effect on approach behaviors. Furthermore, the findings of moderating effects indicate that destination satisfaction of domestic tourists and local residents are affected by different leisure motivations. Finally, destination satisfaction can positively influence domestic tourists’ approach behaviors, but this effect is not significant for local residents.
