How to get to the Cape
There are several ways to get to Cape Cod. There are flights from NYC airports directly in to Hyannis which is about 20 mins from the venue. The flights during this time of year are pretty pricey since there aren't many in May. Another more affordable option would be to fly into Boston, MA or Providence, RI. From there you can rent a car at the airport and drive out to the Cape. The ride is about an hour and a half from both Boston and Providence. For people traveling from the tri-state area, Cape Cod is about 5-6 hour drive depending on traffic. We have done the drive many times and it is fairly long but also scenic as you travel along the Long Island Sound out to the Cape. Another option is to take an Amtrak train from the city to Boston, MA or Providence, RI and rent a car from there.
