🎸 Friday the 13th Featured Events – June 13
They say on Friday the 13th, strange things happen. Black cats cross your path, mirrors crack without warning, and plans mysteriously vanish… unless, of course, you have a plan. Lucky for you, the Town of Babylon is serving up an enchanting lineup that might just reverse your fortune—if you dare to step out.
Your day could begin in mystical peace at 🧘♀️ Sunrise Beach Yoga & Meditation with Jackie at Robert Moses Beach. Set your intentions and stretch the bad luck right out of your system.
Feeling brave (and hungry)? Make a bold move and stock up on protein at the 🥩 20 Ribeyes for $40! Grand Opening Meat Sale at Tanger Outlets — just watch out for falling prices.
At midday, recharge your spiritual shields at the 🔮 Sound Healing Retreat at Yoga Darshana, where crystals, chanting, and tea await to balance your Friday vibes.
But when the sun dips low… the veil thins.
Start your evening with high-impact chaos at 💥 SWA WRESTLE:HELL at the NYWC Sportatorium. Is it sport? Is it sorcery? You decide.
If your kids are feeling brave, drop them off at the spooky and silly 🎃 Friday the 13th Spookfest in Lindenhurst for slime, painting, pizza, and possibly a few jump scares.
Need something lighter to lift the curse? Groove to live tunes from 🎶 Papa Craig at Restoration Kitchen or get nostalgic with 🎵 Vinyl Revival at The Boat Yard, West Gilgo Beach.
And if you’re really leaning into the vibe of the day, close the night at 🛌 Slumber Party Yoga Massacre — a twisted mix of relaxation and thrill at Third Season Yoga. Don’t worry, it’s only *mostly* cursed.

🌽 Saturday Featured Events – June 14
Alright, hear me out… there’s something *suspiciously coordinated* about what’s going on around Babylon this Saturday. Too many events. Too many smiling faces. And not a single one of them questioning the bigger picture. Coincidence? Or carefully orchestrated social engineering? You decide.
The morning kicks off with not one but two mass gatherings at 9:00 AM. That’s right — while everyone else is sipping cold brew and acting like it’s just another Saturday, I’m seeing patterns.
First, there’s the 🎉 Wyandanch Family Day Parade & Festival. Parades? Music? Community bonding? Classic distraction tactics. I’ll be there, of course… undercover.
Simultaneously, the 🥕 Amityville Farmers Market opens its stalls. Locally grown? Organic? Or is it a front for cucumber-based surveillance devices? You laugh, but I’ve seen things in the produce section I can’t unsee.
At 11:00 AM, you’ve got the wildly colorful 🌈 Drag Bingo Brunch. It’s fabulous, it’s fierce, and it’s probably where they hide the real truth—in the glitter.
By 1:00 PM, the cover story kicks into high gear with the 🦞 Seafood Fest at Captree Clam. Look, I’m not saying the lobster is bugged… I’m just saying I’ve never trusted shellfish. You ever seen an honest clam?
Also at 1:00 PM, the 🎭 Newsies Jr. Auditions are being held. A youth uprising based on a true story of resistance? And we’re just letting kids sign up without asking *who* cast the cast list? Wake up, people!
As the sun goes down, the plot thickens. First up: the 🔔 Handbell Concert at 7:00 PM. That’s a lot of bells in one place. Is it music… or is it a signal?
And while you’re distracted by the hypnotic chimes, over at Salt Shack, the past comes roaring back with 🕺 Touch the 80s Live — a neon-fueled dance party that could very well be a time loop experiment disguised as a concert. You didn’t hear it from me.

🎣 Father’s Day Featured Events – June 15
Rise and shine, grill masters and pun enthusiasts — it’s Father’s Day in Babylon, and the day is packed tighter than Dad’s sock drawer. Whether he’s a flapjack flipper, a fish whisperer, or just here for the dad jokes, we’ve got the Sunday schedule *pop*-pin’!
Start the day reeling in the good times with 🎣 Fluke Fishing Trips at Captree. It’s the perfect place for dads to cast lines, cast shade, and cast doubt on their “big fish” stories.
If his idea of “catch of the day” involves kale and kettle corn, swing by the 🌽 Babylon Village Farmers Market. You know he’ll say, “I came for the carrots, but stayed for the conversation.” Classic Dad.
Next up: breakfast. Because nothing says “I appreciate you, Dad” like syrup and sarcasm. Treat him to a 🥞 Flapjack Fundraiser at Applebee’s. He’ll call it “the best stack since the 1985 Mets lineup.”
Need more fish puns? (You’re *hooked*, aren’t you?) Hit the 🎣 Fishing Clinic at Belmont Lake. It’s great for dads who want to teach the next generation how to bait a hook *and* tell a five-minute story about a fish that got away in 1997.
When the afternoon rolls around, get ready to rock harder than Dad’s old high school garage band. Head to 🎸 Pour Some 80s On Me at The Boat Yard. Expect air guitars, mullets, and more dad dancing than you thought legally allowed in public.
Finally, close the day strong with a toast at 🍹 Sunday Funday at Maliblue. Whether it’s beer, a burger, or bad puns, your pops deserves to relax and recharge… until he inevitably starts another “when I was your age” speech.
📅 See all events for Sunday here. And remember — if he groans at the jokes, that means they worked. Happy Father’s Day!
