Lighting of the Pilgrim Monument

About Lighting of the Pilgrim Monument...The Annual Lighting of the Pilgrim Monument, which celebrates the Pilgrims’ First Landing in the New World in Provincetown on November 11, 1620, is one of Cape Cod’s most beautiful traditions and one that is supported by PMPM’s members and friends. The 2019 lighting ceremony will take place on November 11 from 5-7pm at the Pilgrim Monument & Provincetown Museum(PMPM). We will officially “flip the switch” at approximately 6 pm. People come to this iconic event to witness the Monument festooned with more than 3,100 “landing lights” which shine nightly through January 6 of the following year. Admission is free, and light refreshments and entertainment are provided.
