Bear Week Provincetown FAQ
History and overview of our event.
Bear Week Provincetown was created in 2001 by John Burrows and the PtownBears organization to celebrate the Bear community, its admirers and those who just love hanging with the Bear community. It is a week of parties, BBQ s, charity events, lazy days at the beach or relaxing at one the 3 pools in town. Events are spread out across the entire town with each venue having different events throughout the week.
