About the event
BearFest 26 Teddy Bear Banquet
Picture it: Melbourne, January 2025. A young cub climbs to the stage of a darkened, crowded room. His mission - To demonstrate his unique method for frosting “cakes”. Three hours later, he's crowned M VicBears 2025. Yes, it's our boy Billy, and he’s ending his reign as Mr. VicBears with a Teddy Bears Banquet to say goodbye and to “Thank you for being a Friend”. We’re heading to UBQ, and you can expect some 90s themed performances by some of Melbourne's Golden Girls of drag, food and drink specials, and we may even pull the contestants for Mr VicBears 2026 onstage for a bit of a chat. This is a gender inclusive event, so feel free to bring all friends of Dorothy.
And the question on everyone's lips. Will there be cheesecake? You bet your sweet Rose Nylons there will be!
