Founded in 1978, the Provincetown Business Guild (PBG) is a membership organization that promotes Provincetown as The Travel Destination for the LGBTQ+ community. We aim to elevate and cultivate the queer identity of Provincetown, drive LGBTQ+ tourism, and support our local businesses.
The Jingle Bell Run is the PBG's LARGEST holiday fundraising activity! If you love this event, consider supporting the longevity of LGBTQ+ Provincetown by contributing towards the support of our organization's marketing campaigns, events and community organizing! Happy Holidays!
The Guild is made up of nearly 300 members, including retail shops, galleries, restaurants, lodging establishments, attractions, professional organizations, night-clubs and more that support the organization’s mission. We aim to bring people to Provincetown to stay, eat, shop, and experience the specialness of a destination where they are both celebrated and safe to be themselves.
One of the ways the Guild promotes Provincetown is through the production of world-class events like Pride in June, Carnival in August, and Holly Folly & First Light in December, helping to attract over a million visitors annually.
The Guild also oversees the operations of the Provincetown Pride Center at 115 Bradford St.
