Without a doubt, this ongoing Great South Bay Music Festival is going to dominate the weekend in the Greater Patchogue coverage area, which runs from Brookhaven to Bayport.
The music fest kicked off Thursday night with performances from top female artists Colbie Caillat and Christina Perri, and others. (See 20 photos from Thursday’s festival.)
The party continues Friday, when headliners 311 and The Mighty Mighty Bosstones take the main Blue Point Brewing Company stage. Lotus and the Chris Robinson Brotherhood are performing Saturday. The show wraps up Sunday with headliners Electric Hot Tuna, Lou Gramm, Jefferson Starship, among others.
General admission tickets are $32.50 online and $39 at the box office at Shorefront Park.
Aside from the headliners, about 20 Long Island bands, several from Patchogue, will be peforming.
