Provincetown’s Food & Wine Festival turns the off-season into four days of wine dinners, tastings, tea dances and drag brunches, with the Grand Tasting at Town Hall as its centerpiece. Events take place at restaurants, hotels, bars and galleries all over town, so it’s easy to build a weekend around a dinner or two, an afternoon tasting and a night out.
