There's a prize for the best costume of the night, so go full were-bear, zombie lumberjack, sexy pumpkin, or whatever's been lurking in the back of the wardrobe.

Support workers and carers come free. Full details on our Inclusion and Accessibility page — and if something would make it easier for you to come, tell us before the night.
Bring your mates, bring the boys, even bring your dad. Every entry goes into the door prize draw, and the raffle runs all night. Come hang with the bears, make some new friends, and be part of one of Perth's longest-running queer social clubs.
