On behalf of our Board of Directors and all of us here at the Chamber of Commerce I would like to welcome you to Provincetown!
Provincetown is America’s oldest continuous art colony, the birthplace of modern, American theater and a safe harbor for many generations who were born or visited here.
With 80+ accommodations and eateries, 200+ shops and 60+ art galleries and events, we are your onestop-shop destination that offers something fun for everyone. Make sure you don’t miss our unique whale watch, trolley, bicycle and dune tours, or our world-class dining, nightlife and entertainment, as well as our wellrenowned beaches Cape Cod National Seashore.
I would also like to take this opportunity to wholeheartedly thank our members, who have been supporting their local chamber for over 68 years, our resilient community as well as our experienced staff, who go above and beyond on a daily basis to serve our members and guests.
We are also in the process of renovating and rehabilitating our Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center building as we believe this will help us better serve our members, visitors, staff and community altogether. We have some exciting plans and projects in store for you because we are Provincetown and we are proud to share our legacy and heritage with you for generations to come.
All are welcome to Provincetown and may 2025 be our best year yet!
Please visit PtownChamber.com to plan and book your trip today!
Sincerely,
Radu Luca
