Streets were shut down, old theaters opened up, and people flooded in on Saturday, Jan. 28, to check out the festivities at this year's Night on Broadway. For the ninth time, Broadway was completely shut down from First Street to Olympic to make way for tens of thousands of attendees and 11 stages for music — including Mayer Hawthorne, Oingo Boingo Dance Party, Thee Commons and PPL MVR — as well as live art, masked wrestling, virtual reality and more. Best of all, it was all free. All photography by Shane Lopes
