All Aboard, babes. Provincetown’s 47th Annual Carnival officially sets sail with CarrieOnDisco & Father Figure on our Fag Bash at Sea Carnival Cruise. Hop aboard The Love Boat and feel the thrill of taking the party to the water. We’ll be dancing, sightseeing, flirting, singing—and who knows, maybe even falling in love.
Celebrate Carnival in Provincetown by sharing some self-love in the form of fresh air, exercise, and community right in step with your LGBTQ+ family. ‘Feet Over Front Street’ will stretch the entirety of Commercial Street (originally called ‘Front Street’).
