PROVINCETOWN – Provincetown Police advise that Thursday’s parade is Provincetown’s BIGGEST event. As such, considerable planning has gone into making sure the parade is successful. Police would like to ask the public’s help in making sure this happens.
There will be a Commercial Street parking ban in effect thursday, August 18th from 9 AM to 6 PM.
