Sunday: A flotilla parade in Provincetown Harbor!
And of course, there will be the usual activities during the weekend – performers, tea dance, and more!
Since Provincetown’s founding, it has been a welcoming haven for people who might be considered “outsiders” in other parts of the world. First, it was home to immigrant Portuguese fishermen, then a travel destination for artists, actors, playwrights, and poets from a variety of backgrounds. In the early 1900s many of these creatives found Provincetown to be a place where there was freedom to express sexual preferences and a sense of acceptance which the rest of the world had yet to learn.
Provincetown has been characterized as a safe place to be gay for over a century. Over the years, it has continued its tradition as a place of tolerance, harmony, and love for the LGBT community.
Event details are still being finalized, however they will include a beach pool party, boat cruises, cocktail parties, a gay market and gay pride parade and march through the town.
