Provincetown Calendar of Events for 2010
FREE PARKING IN MUNICIPAL LOTS FROM NOVEMBER 1ST TO MARCH 30TH!
The off season is our favorite time of year in Provincetown. For those of us who adore Cape Cod, not for the masses of tourists, but for the sky and sand and sea, off season is heaven. There are still plenty of wonderful restaurants, events and entertainment to choose from. The clubs are still filled with charming characters.
Our inn is more affordable this time as we offer low off season rates. We invite you to get in a car or on a plane and experience off season in Provincetown. You will not be disappointed.
We have listed Provincetown events below to aid you while making plans to visit our historic town and our recently renovated bed and breakfast, Gabriel’s at Ashbrooke Inn.
ASGCC: AIDS Support Group of Cape Cod
FAWC: Fine Arts Work Center
HOW: Helping Our Women
PAAM: Provincetown Art Association and Museum
PBG: Provincetown Business Guild
PMPM: Pilgrim Monument & Provincetown Museum
