ASBURY PARK, New Jersey (WABC) -- People will be enjoying more than just the beautiful late-summer beach weather in Asbury Park this weekend.

The Sea.Hear.Now music festival will take place on Saturday and Sunday.

The main stage was spotted all set up on the beach on Friday. The first night will be headlined by Noah Kahan.

Sunday, the main headliner is New Jersey native "The Boss" Bruce Springsteen. It will be Springsteen's first show in Asbury Park since 2010.

The festival will be a big economic boom for the boardwalk, but fans are encouraged to shop local businesses which will have discounts.

The beach will be packed and many lifeguards. People are reminded that most of the lifeguards left after Labor Day.

Asbury Park officials said they expect upwards of 35,000 fans on both Saturday and Sunday.

The festival kicks off Saturday at 12 p.m. and 11 a.m. on Sunday.
