Western Roundup: Mr Bear Perth Competition

This is a community event open to all genders. Bring your besties, gal pals, your mum and dad!

This is the night it all goes down! Join us for the main event of Western Roundup—the Mr Bear Perth 2025 Competition. Our incredible contestants will take to the stage for three fierce and fabulous rounds, all vying for the title and sash of Mr Bear Perth.

Expect a show packed with personality, community, and heart. There will be laughs, maybe even a few tears, and above all, a whole lot of fun. Mr Bear Perth isn’t just a title—it’s a celebration of visibility, leadership, and the values that make our bear scene thrive.

The winner will become a community ambassador for Bears Perth, representing the club at events locally and abroad—including the prestigious Mr Australasia Bear competition in Melbourne next June.

Contestants are judged on interviews, community engagement, and three thrilling stage rounds: Everyday Bear, Bear Essentials, and Time to Shine. Expect bold looks, creative flair, and powerful performances that celebrate what it means to be a part of this community.

Dress to impress—or come as you are. Leather, pup gear, casual wear, or whatever makes you feel confident and comfortable is welcome. We warmly welcome our brethren from other bear clubs, pups, leatherfolk, and all members of our vibrant and diverse community.

All contestants identify as male or male-presenting, but the event warmly welcomes support from all genders and corners of our community.
