What Makes Ptown Pride Unique
Unlike most Pride celebrations that take place in cities where LGBTQ+ people are a minority, Provincetown Pride celebrates a town where queer culture is the dominant culture. The parade is more of a joyful stroll down Commercial Street than a protest march, and the entire town participates.
