The Greater Patchogue Chamber of Commerce, Inc. held the first annual “Midnight on Main St.” on Wednesday, December 31 from 8 – 9 p.m. at Capital One Bank Plaza in Patchogue for more than 2,200 attendees. The first of its kind on Long Island, Midnight on Main Street celebrated New Year’s Eve 2015.

Thousands were in attendance for Midnight on Main St. as the illuminated ball, designed and created by Signarama and NorthStar Sign and Neon, rose from Capital One Bank Plaza at 116 East Main Street at the stroke of 9 p.m. At that time, a display of grand illuminations were set off from the roof of Capital One Bank by Grucci Fireworks, thanks to a generous donation by the Christmas N’ Patchogue Committee. DJ Jay Letterman entertained the crowd of thousands from 8 p.m. A video of Midnight on Main St. can be viewed here.
