   the 17-40 or the 10-22 would both be excellent, if you want to save some money the 50 1.8 is also an excellent choice. Don't forget to bring a tripod, you'll need it for night shots.

   The Cannon 50mm f1.8 is cheap (probably less than $80) and much faster than most zooms. It seems to get good reviews, though every one says it's cheply made, it seems to be sharp, and for the price a good deal. For about $400 you can get almost another stop of speed (f1.4) and bettter construction, but you asked about the "less expensive side"

   i think the best lens for night photography is canon 17-40 f/4 L .. it's razor sharp, light and enough for wide range..

   or you can think EF-S canon 10-22.. it's awesome for 1.6x CMOS devices

   Cannon 50mm f1.8

   I have this lens for a while and it great in low light and for portrait too…It cheap…But bare in mind it is a fixed lens…and be careful when you using it at low f-stop, I have experience of pictures being out of focus..may be because i just dont get use to the lens yet…
