Check out the Mr. Brighton Bear 2021 contestants, and vote for your favorite Bear! 

Brighton Bear Weekend, one of the UK’s biggest Bear events of the summer, will happen this year from Thursday, July 22 to Sunday, July 25! 

After last year’s competition was very creatively and enthusiastically rolled out online, the friendly Brighton Bear crew are thrilled that this year’s year’s event final will be LIVE, taking place on Friday, July 23rd in beautiful downtown Kemptown. There will be two ways to vote — online and then in person at the live event, which means entrants’ chances of winning will be doubled!

Mr. Brighton Bear 2021 will win a £100 cash prize and a fabulous Mr. Brighton Bear sash and crown. The runner up will be pocketing a handy £25. As with last year’s competition, entrants have been asked to provide photos of themselves relating to three fun categories — Beachwear, Night Out On The Town & Wear What You Dare! Short interviews have also been filmed and shared online to help their furry (and non-furry) fans and friends around the world decide who should snatch this year’s crown!

Take a look at this year’s contestants, and vote for who you think should be the next Mr. Brighton Bear! Hurry, you only have two days left!
