Michelangelo meets Main Street - local events look divine this week!

,

this Week's lineup includes cover bands, art shows, and your neighbor Gary in cargo shorts.

If you thought Babylon was sleepy in late August, think again. This week we’ve got everything from youth theater shows and block parties to fishing trips, street fairs, and concerts that’ll make your dad break out his air guitar. Consider this your anti-doomscrolling toolkit: swap political chaos for popcorn at Tanner Park, inflation talk for free live music, and your 3rd Netflix binge for an actual night out.

Featured Events of the Week: 

🎪 Babylon Block Party
Thu Aug 21 • 5–9 pm • Babylon Village
Downtown Babylon transforms into one giant block-long festival with food vendors, live bands, family activities, and that electric summer energy you only get on Main Street. Bring the crew, grab a bite, and dance in the street under the lights.
Plan your night: Babylon Block Party

⛳ Deer Park Chamber Annual Golf Outing
Thu Aug 21 • 9 am • Bergen Point Golf Course, West Babylon
Hit the greens with local business leaders and neighbors for a full day of golf, networking, raffles, and good eats. Whether you’re here to close deals or just work on your swing, this outing is a hole-in-one for fun and community connection.

Tuesday, August 19 Events

Your Tuesday options are way better than doomscrolling: catch dinos under the stars with Jurassic World at Tanner Park, or vibe oceanside with Bryne Unit at Salt Shack. If you’d rather reset your brain, Breaking Barriers Meditation in Amityville will calm your existential dread. And for families, Middle School Make & Mingle is the perfect pre-school-year social warm-up.

Wednesday, August 20 Events

Midweek is anything but mid — catch Miles to Dayton at the Babylon Gazebo for some folky soul, or throw it back with Tasty Wave’s 80s Dance Night at Salt Shack. Music heads should hit Hot Mulligan’s Listening Party in West Babylon or the Grateful Dead Tribute in Amityville. And if you’d rather DIY some memories, the Beach Glass Art Workshop in Farmingdale has your crafty side covered.

Thursday, August 21 Events

Thursday comes in swinging: the Deer Park Chamber Golf Outing puts the networking on the green, while the Still Blue Fishing Trip sets sail from Captree. Downtown Babylon transforms with the legendary Babylon Block Party, and art lovers get a new obsession at the Babylon MoMA Grand Opening. When the sun sets, close the night with Social Gold at Salt Shack or the free Disney Newsies Jr. youth theater show in North Babylon.

⛳See all events for Thursday here.

Friday, August 22 Events

Friday goes full festival mode: groove with the Earth, Wind & Fire Tribute at Tanner Park, rock out with The Electric Dudes in Lindenhurst, or dance on the sand with the Soul Cruisers at Salt Shack. Families can cheer on young stars at Newsies Jr. in North Babylon, while night owls can rave till morning at Better Off Alone: 90s/2000s Dance Rave in Amityville. Basically, Friday is built for FOMO.
