Family-Friendly Festivals on Cape Cod

Cape Cod
Hydrangea Festival
Summer
Kick off the 昀椀rst day of summer at the Cape Cod
Chamber’s Quahog Day, when Cape Cod’s trusty
meteorological mollusk Doug the Quahog predicts
how many beach days we can expect for the summer
ahead. The whole family is invited to get in on the fun,
and photo opps abound with local “shell-ebrity” Doug!
Be respectful though, his security team is top notch.
Check QuahogDay.com for this year’s prognostication
location.
Ever wish you could explore the secret gardens of
Cape Cod? Cape Cod Hydrangea Festival is the
perfect chance! From Woods Hole to Provincetown,
extraordinary private gardens open to the public during
this ten-day tour each July across Cape Cod, with
proceeds bene昀椀tting local nonpro昀椀ts.
Around mid-July, the Barnstable County Fair takes over
Cape Cod Fairgrounds in Falmouth for a thrilling week
of top-notch musical acts, amusement rides, livestock
shows, petting zoos, and the world’s largest Demolition
Derby. Food trucks abound, so get ready for some fried
dough and corndogs!
