Out on the Bay will take place from 12 pm – 6 pm on our Grand Lawn, a sprawling outdoor garden space with panoramic waterfront views. We’ve partnered with Provincetown’s premier hotel and entertainment complex, Crown & Anchor, to transport a taste of the destination’s thriving LGBTQ+ community to Out on the Bay.  Crown & Anchor Co-Owner Jonathan Hawkins has curated a Tea Dance showcase of pop-up performances from a roster of all-star talent direct from the epicenter of Cape Cod’s LGBTQ+ destination. Crown & Anchor’s commitment to honoring tradition, supporting community, celebrating queer arts, and elevating LGBTQ+ tourism brings a unique perspective and valuable partner to the Out on the Bay experience.  We will also host Mark Adams, 2023 Artist of the Year, who will do a live painting which we will auction off!

Guests can sip and shop at the pop-up queer-makers market presented by The Cooperative Bank of Cape Cod which will highlight LGBTQ+ and ally owned local businesses, including Chatham-based bookstore Where The Sidewalk Ends, which will curate a selection of literature and authored books.  Provincetown Brewing Co. will also be on-site with a pop-up beer garden featuring a selection of some of their most popular brews!

Tickets are priced at $50 adults, and complimentary for ages 12 and under, with proceeds benefiting local Cape Cod-based nonprofit organizations, The Arts Foundation of Cape Cod  and PFLAG Cape Cod. Guests who want to go all out for the event can opt for a VIP ticket ($75), granting access to the Lower Verandah lounge, a separate space perched just above The Grand Lawn that will offer a dedicated bar, complimentary food, performer meet & greets, pride-themed treats, and additional perks.

Performers include Tina Burner from Season 13 of RuPaul’s Drag Race), Yoli Mayor (seen on America’s Got Talent and American Idol), João Santos, Donnelly & Richardson, Hilarie Tamar, Qya Cristál, Delta Miles, Roxy Pops, and more!
