Cast Your Vote for Brighton Bear 2024
Mark your calendars and prepare for the return of Brighton Bear Weekend, set to take place from July 11th to 14th, 2024, in the heart of Brighton, UK. Celebrating its 14th year, this beloved event promises a weekend brimming with excitement, camaraderie, and, of course, the crowning of the new Brighton Bear 2024!
One of the most anticipated highlights of the weekend is the election of Brighton Bear 2024. This year marks the sixth instalment of this much-loved tradition, where the community comes together to choose a bear who embodies the spirit and energy of Brighton Bear Weekend. The competition is not just about looks; it’s about celebrating our vibrant bear community’s character, charm, and contribution.
How to Cast Your Vote
Whether you’re a local or an international fan of the bear scene, you can participate in the voting process. Head over to Brighton Bear Weekend’s official website and cast your vote for the candidate who you think should wear the sash for the upcoming year. Voting is a breeze – you can vote only once, but if you change your mind, don’t worry. You can revise your choice any time before July 13th at noon.
The election of Brighton Bear 2024 is more than just a title – it’s a symbol of our community’s values and spirit. The chosen bear will represent the Brighton Bears throughout the year, promoting inclusivity, pride, and the unique culture that makes Brighton Bear Weekend so special.
