Brighton Bear Weekend 2025: dates, events, hotels

Brighton Bear Weekend 2025 will take place from 10th to 13th July! The festivities will begin with the fabulous and ever so slightly competitive BBW quiz. Don't miss the legendary garden party and of course the incredibly popular Mr Brighton Bear competition.

Bears, cubs and pals will descend on Brighton to party and celebrate with events including Bear-a-oke, Cub night, Mr Brighton Bear competition and more.

Brighton Bear Weekend is one of the friendlier and more inclusive Pride events. The event will raise money for the Brighton Rainbow Fund.
