25 Photos: Scenes from a packed Alive by the Bay in downtown Bay Shore

A clear summer night made for the perfect backdrop for 2018’s second Alive by the Bay festival in downtown Bay Shore, which drew huge crowds to Main Street.

Alive by the Bay, modeled after Patchogue’s Alive After Five, is now in its second year. There are two more festivals planned for this summer: Aug. 7 and Aug. 21.
