    2024 Provincetown Polar Bear Plunge
    Date: 2024-01-01     Time: 11 AM : 0 minutes

    On New Years Day 2024, Provincetown will celebrate the seventh annual Polar Bear Plunge! On that day, hundreds of intrepid plungers will meet in the Johnson Street parking lot, collect tee-shirts, gather inspiration from tracks spun by our New Year’s Day DJ, and learn about the important work of the Center for Coastal Studies! At noon, weather permitting, registrants will run, splash and plunge into the waters of Provincetown Harbor.

    Presented by the Provincetown Business Guild, this event is sponsored by the Harbor Lounge, Yolqueria, Mezzeterranean and the 8 Dyer Hotel, will feature warm-up cocktails by Tito’s Vodka and chili at Harbor Lounge provided by Stop & Shop.
    This charity tradition is part of the Provincetown First Light celebrations for New Years Weekend 2024.
