Lighting of the Lobster Pot Tree

The Lighting of the Lobster Pot Tree is a Provincetown tradition that rings in the holiday season. Started in 2004 by artist Julian Popko who wanted to design a holiday celebration that recognized the hard-working local lobstermen, the “tree” is made of real lobster traps, and has become a beloved tradition.  Held at 5:30 pm at Lopes Square (Commercial and Standish Street) in Provincetown.
