Purgatory at Gifford House

Atlantic House (or A-House) has been the premier nightclub in Provincetown for decades. The complex is open year-round and features three distinct bars. Little Bar offers a jukebox, fireplace, and quirky nautical decor, and is a popular space for an afternoon hangout. Macho Bar is the city's original leather and Levi bar (complete with cage) attracting a cruisey crowd. The Big Room is the number one dance club in Provincetown, with state-of-the-art sound and lighting and the very latest music.

Part of the popular Crown & Anchor Restaurant, Paramount is the largest waterfront nightclub in the city. It's a great alternative to the crowded bars and pubs, with a huge dance floor, state-of-the-art light and sound technology, and a host of internationally renowned DJs keeping the party going. This place is central to the gay scene, hosting cabaret and theatre performances, and featuring a quiet pool patio out back where you can get some fresh air.

This waterfront cocktail lounge overlooking the harbour is a beautiful place to have an afternoon drink with friends. The space is modern with a comfortable ambience, serving crowd favourites like martinis, bubbles, and a great selection of wines and beers. Enjoy all this in a seating area that feel like a home from home, watching the sun set over the pier, and chatting with a welcoming crowd.

The Gifford House Inn is home to Purgatory, one of Provincetown's most popular LGBTQ+ dance clubs. In the basement below this charming vintage inn, you'll find a lively party that attracts a cruisey crowd of leather guys and plays great house music late into the night. If you need a break there's also the Porchside Bar hidden just inside the lobby of the inn, where you can enjoy a quieter drink in a lounge-like atmosphere.

Located in the popular Crown & Anchor Inn, Wave is a great place to relax with delicious cocktails served up by friendly bartenders. There's access to a waterfront pool deck with fantastic harbour views, plus a dozen video screens playing a range of music videos. House DJs choose what's on and keep the place lively, and there's also a Stage & Screen Musical night multiple times per week.

Located in the upscale Brass Key Hotel, Shipwreck Lounge has a classic but modern, relaxed yet vibrant feel. It's the perfect spot to meet up with old friends over handcrafted cocktails, made from high quality fresh produce and exotic ingredients from around the world. Skilled mixologists shake up the perfect blend of ingredients and flavours to complete your Provincetown getaway, transporting you to another world as you enjoy your drinks around the fire in a super cosy setting.
