Thanks to a donation by the Highland Street Foundation in Boston, for the second year in a row Plimoth Plantation is participating this Friday, July 2, in Free Fun Fridays. Starting at 10 a.m. you can park at Shops at 5, off Long Pond Road, and shuttle buses will run you for free to the Plantation and the Mayflower II until 5 p.m., where you will have free admission. The Highland Street Foundation is also donating the buses.
Admission for adults to the Plantation and the Mayflower II normally costs $28 per day, and Plymouth residents pay $5. Plymouth resident family membership costs $35 a year, and includes discounts on programs and gift shop items. Plymouth residents with memberships can visit the Plantation and the Mayflower II for free any day.
