“I am so grateful to the Provincetown Business Guild, my life has changed forever! I keep saying to everyone that it was the best week of my life, and I am only 26! Everyone deserves to see Provincetown and experience it as I did. I’m on cloud 9…and I think I will be for a while.” ~ Freya Reeves

“I want to express my heartfelt thanks for the opportunity to participate in the PtownONE Program and to experience TransWeek in Provincetown. It was truly a refreshing and affirming experience, one that beautifully blended community, reflection, and celebration. I leave Provincetown inspired, grounded, and more connected to a vibrant community of changemakers.” ~ Akom Nya

Fewer than 6% of Provincetown visitors are under 35. In order to engage and grow our younger visitor demographic, the Provincetown Pride Center has partnered with Provincetown Business Guild (PBG) lodging members to offer an accessibility opportunity for Provincetown visitors between the ages of 21-29, with an emphasis on first-time visitors. Not only will you get the opportunity to share in the magic of Provincetown, but the program hopes to serve as a reminder to younger LGBTQ+ generations that Provincetown is a space for them too, and that our community is actively seeking to welcome future generations so they will continue to visit Provincetown for years to come.

The PBG has partnered with several of our lodging partners to acquire donated rooms during both Pride Weekend (June 5-7, 2026) and TransWeek (October 18-21 & October 23-25, 2026). These rooms will be given away through a lottery system application for LGBTQ+ visitors between the ages of 21-29 who wish to come to Provincetown for Pride Weekend or TransWeek. Selected winners will also be provided with round trip ferry passes through Boston Harbor City Cruises or bus transportation through Peter Pan.

In order to apply, you must be between the ages of 21-29 and have never visited Provincetown, MA. If you meet this criterion, complete the brief survey below.

This year’s application deadline for PtownONE during Pride Weekend is Wednesday, April 29, 2026 and the deadline for PtownONE during TransWeek is September 18, 2026. Selected participants may bring one additional guest to share their room if they wish.

Thank You to Our 2026 PtownONE Lodging Supporters
