- Are you visiting Ptown for a gay event? Book your stay at the Carpe Diem Guest House, rated “Superb” by our readers and located right by Commercial St, close to all the gay bars and clubs.
The Festival
- Historically, Provincetown has never been for the straight and narrow, and it has been a haven for artists and the queer community for over a century.
- During the roaring ’20s, the town was considered “the most artistic place in the world”. Tennessee Williams wrote A Streetcar Named Desire in the Atlantic House.
- In 1965, Nina Simone performed in town during a visit with her friend Bob Thompson (a short-lived yet accomplished black painter.)
- A riot broke out in front of Spiritus Pizza in 1990 over the arrest of a local drag queen, Vanilla. Let’s just say it involved…. flying pizzas, ice-cream cones, a golden plunger, and stilettos going through the back window of a cop car.
- Washashore embraces this history and presents a music and arts festival like nothing you’ve attended!
- Check out The Provincetown Hotel at Gabriel’s for a “Fabulous” stay during a fabulous event with charming and spacious rooms, delicious breakfast options, charming hosts and excellent location.

- Washashore Festival 2024 will feature headliner performances by emerging pop superstars, emerging national acts and some of Provincetown’s most popular local talent.
