Mother’s Day Weekend Events Around the Town of Babylon NY: May 8–10, 2026
Mother’s Day Weekend is here in the Town of Babylon, and the calendar is absolutely doing the most. We’ve got live music, waterfront food, self-care events, puppy yoga, community cleanups, mini golf, gaming events, Mother’s Day brunches, and a whole lot of reasons to get out of the house.
Whether you’re celebrating Mom, treating yourself, supporting local businesses, taking the kids out, or just trying to make the weekend feel like a weekend, there’s something happening around Babylon, West Babylon, Lindenhurst, Amityville, Deer Park, Farmingdale, Wheatley Heights, and beyond.
And yes, Mother Nature appears to be giving us a mixed bag. Friday looks like clouds and sun with a possible shower, Saturday may be rainy and breezy, and Sunday looks like the better outdoor day with clouds and sunshine.

🐶 Featured Event of the Weekend: Mother’s Day Weekend Puppy Yoga
Come for the yoga. Stay for the puppies. Leave with a full heart.
If you are looking for an event that basically sells itself, this is it. Mother’s Day Weekend Puppy Yoga brings gentle yoga together with adorable puppies running around the room, climbing into laps, giving kisses, stealing the show, and generally doing what puppies do best: making everyone forget their problems for a while.
The event supports Pawsitive Possibilities Rescue, with funds going toward vet care, food, and supplies while the puppies wait for their forever homes.
