Provincetown’s year-long roll call of events celebrates every aspect of the queer community, from the Out of Hibernation: Winter Bear Weekend in March to the Polar Plunge. In between are more than two dozen amazing events, from Lesbian Visibility Week USA in Ptown to Single Women’s Weekend, MEMDay Ptwon to Womxn of Color Weekend. Provincetown Pride ushers in high summer, with Frolic: Men of Color Weekend to the Provincetown Portuguese Festival, Bear Week, Girl Splash, Family Week, and Carnival. Fall is highlighted by Women’s Week, Trans Week, and Spooky Bear Halloween Weekend. Then it’s holiday favorites like Holly Folly and First Light.

Thanks to a backdrop of one of the country’s most beautiful beach towns, a welcoming haven of galleries, restaurants, guesthouses, hotels, bars, and cafes, the town is famed for its beautiful dunes of the Cape Cod National Seashore and the daily Tea Dance at the Boatslip.  The schedule is still shaping up but here’s a glimpse of the year ahead.
