Perth's queer bear club since 1993
Bearded or smooth, big or small, cub or silver fox — there is no one way to be a bear. The whole point of us is a space where nobody has to wonder whether they are the right shape. Two Den Nights a month, a board games afternoon, and one very big week every September.
Congratulations Hien — Mr Bear Perth 2026!
What a night at Connections. After three fierce and fabulous rounds, the sash and title of Mr Bear Perth 2026 went to Hien. He'll represent Bears Perth and our community for the year ahead, and we couldn't be prouder.
And that's a wrap on Western Roundup 2026. Five events, one very big week, and a whole lot of fur. Thank you to every contestant, our judges and hosts, our sponsors and volunteers, and everyone who came out to play.
Never been to a Bears Perth event? Den Nights are free for members and $5 for guests, and you are just as welcome bringing a mate as turning up on your own. The guide covers the practical bits — where the gate is, what things cost, and what actually happens on the night.
