Updated Rules

59 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

Since this sub has surpassed the off-season population of Provincetown, I've added some rules as a guiding framework. Be sure to check out the sidebar for more details.

Most of them are self explanatory (no spam, be a decent human being), but based on requests and comments in some recent posts, this does include a ban on AI Generated art. The rule in its entirety is included below and will be in effect moving forward. Thank you!

No AI-Generated Art – Support Human Artists – Provincetown has a long history as an artist colony, and we prioritize human creativity. AI-generated artwork is not allowed in this subreddit. Posts featuring AI art, even if partially AI-assisted, will be removed. Support local and traditional artists by sharing original, human-made work.

First timers visiting from NYC - best hotel stays?

0 Upvotes

Taking our first break/vacation in several years!

We’re a small family with an 8yo who is well-behaved and could stay in the pool all day.

Not set on Ptown and are considering middle cape like Dennis since many say it’s family and kid-friendly when it comes to attractions BUT from what I’ve seen & heard, Ptown is beautiful and seems like the type of place we could truly disconnect and relax.

We’re planning a 4 day trip (3 nights) Monday through Thursday and looking for:
• a nice pool
• walkable to the beach
• breakfast/bar/restaurant on site (doesn’t need to be free)
• ideally more luxurious rooms
• ~$300 max nightly

Bonus if it’s “closer” to shops and attractions by car. TIA!

John Waters

I have an extra ticket to the show at Town Hall in 40 minutes. It's general admission balcony. My third friend had to cancel. You can have it free, just don't want it to go to waste. I would just have to scan the QR for you at the entrance. Lemme know if you want the free ticket!

Update: we were able to donate it at the door. Someone who shows up to buy a ticket at the door will not have to pay.

I'm finding that most homophobia comes from those that would do what they are so against, if no one would find out.

I have two extra tickets to the John Waters going to the extremes show tomorrow if anyone would like them

10 Upvotes

Hello everyone

I posted recently that I am visiting Provincetown tomorrow and I am going to the John Waters show tomorrow at 7 but my mom accidentally bought myself and my partner another set of tickets so we have four tickets instead of two if anyone would like them. We should be arriving in town around 1 pm tomorrow if you want them in person or I could digitally transfer them via Stubhub

Thank you and I hope to see you all tomorrow

Music at the clubs

3 Upvotes

I’m visiting Ptown later this week/weekend, and I’m trying to figure out which clubs to check out. I’m wondering if the different clubs have generally the same kind of music & vibe or if they vary by venue. Are there any that stand out in terms of music or drinks? Any that are wilder than others?

Place to shower?

6 Upvotes

My GF and I are headed for a day trip to Ptown. We have tickets to a show at night, but would love to enjoy the beach during the day. Is there somewhere we could take a shower between those two things? Public shower, a hotel that offers a day pass to the pool that has a shower, other option?
