Live Shoreline Music Tonight, Weekend Farmers Markets & Local Spotlights
Sea Cliff, NY · August 14, 2026
Gulls are circling the bluff early today, pointing the way toward a packed Friday evening of coastal music and outdoor gatherings.
The Lead
As mid-August arrives, the summer soundtrack along Hempstead Harbor reaches its peak tonight with back-to-back outdoor performances taking center stage across the waterfront corridor. The Sea Cliff Beach Friday Night Summer Music Series welcomes residents down to the sand for sunset melodies, while nearby Glen Cove’s Downtown Sounds celebrates its 30th season in Village Square with a multi-decade show featuring The Incredible AM/FM Time Machine.
For local families and music lovers, the dual lineup offers a walkable, low-key way to kick off the weekend along the shoreline. Local organizers encourage attendees to arrive early with lawn chairs, grab takeout from local village eateries, and enjoy the open-air shows before the late-summer calendar winds down later this month.

Spotlight & Story
- Scudders Pond Preserve
