FARMINGDALE, N.Y. — Downtown Farmingdale’s biggest summer street party is back, and this year we’re calling it early: DJ Neil C (WLIT.FM) is set to be the main act at Croxley’s on the North Side of Main Street for Music on Main 2026—the spot where the crowd naturally congregates once the street shuts down, the speakers go up, and Main turns into one giant open-air celebration.

Music on Main isn’t a “show up and stand in one place” kind of night. It’s a full downtown takeover—people strolling, dancing, grabbing bites, linking up with friends, and settling into the loudest, most electric pockets of the street. And if you’ve been before, you already know: Croxley’s North Side is one of those magnets. That’s where Neil C will be driving the energy all night—big festival-style mixes, singalongs, and crowd control the way a summer street party demands.

The dates and times

Music on Main runs four Thursday nights this summer:

• Thursday, July 9

• Thursday, July 23

• Thursday, August 6

• Thursday, August 20

Time: 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Rain date (if needed): Thursday, August 27

It’s free to attend, and it’s built for everyone—friends, families, date nights, group hangouts, and the “we’ll see where the night takes us” crowd.

What Music on Main actually feels like

Think of it like this: Farmingdale takes the vibe of a packed Saturday night… and spreads it across Main Street while the sun is still up.

You’ll see:

• Main Street turned into a walkable strip of music and movement

• Outdoor dining energy everywhere

• Vendors and pop-up surprises that keep the night feeling alive beyond just the music

• A real “summer kickoff” feeling on every date, not just the first one

And then there’s the soundtrack—where DJ Neil C comes in.

Why DJ Neil C at Croxley’s is the move

Neil’s not doing background music. He’s built for crowd momentum—the kind of set that keeps people on their feet and keeps groups from drifting home early.

Expect:

• High-energy open-format that fits the street-party vibe

• Timing built for flow (early warm-up, prime-time peak, big finish)

• Music that works for mixed crowds—people who want to dance, people who want to vibe, and people who just want that “this feels like summer on Long Island” atmosphere

If you’re coming to Music on Main and want to plant yourself where the energy is strongest, Croxley’s North Side + DJ Neil C is the clearest play.

Street closure + parking info you’ll want to know

For each Music on Main date, the two-block stretch of Main Street is scheduled to be closed to vehicle traffic roughly from 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM, spanning Prospect Street to South Front Street. Parking fills up fast on these nights, so plan ahead—arrive early if you want a smoother experience.

Pro tips for a perfect Music on Main night

• Arrive earlier than you think. The best energy builds as soon as the street closes.

• Dress for both sun and night air. July can be hot; the breeze changes later.

• Make it a crew night. This event is built for meetups and group hangs.

• If you’re driving, park and commit. Don’t try to “move the car later.”
