Where?
Provincetown, Massachusetts

  • Provincetown Town Hall
    260 Commercial Street, Provincetown, MA

When?
April 19-21, 2024

STOMP will take place from Friday – Sunday April 19-21, 2024. We chose this time of year ’cause, usually, we can’t afford Provincetown during the high season. It’s calmer (and cheaper).

Why?
We love it and want to share!

This Hoedown started over 25 years ago as a getaway and fundraiser for queer country-western dancers who were two-stepping and line dancing at Arlington Street Church. Gays for Patsy took over a few years after and has been running it for more than 20 years now.

Our goal for the weekend is to offer a safe, fun environment to learn, dance, and socialize.
