Bears all over the world are preparing for a week of furry fun as London’s first ever Bear Festival is announced.
Highlights of the celebration so far announced involve an Opening Ceremony, The London Bearfest Bank Holiday Party, a Film Festival and a special event hosted by London’s legendary nightclub, Meat.
More intimate events will also be included, such as restaurant outings, cabaret, sing-a-longs and ‘The Bear Bar Hop’, which entails a bar crawl exclusively for Bears.
Kurt Hoffman, Artist Director of Bearfest 2014, said: “I’m extremely excited and really proud to bring together the bear community with the very first London Bearfest being held in one of the greatest cities in the world”.
The festival, which aims to appeal to all ages, will celebrate in some of London’s key areas, from Soho, Hoxton and Marble Arch, to Waterloo Vauxhall and Clapham.
