Harbour City Bears is invading Newcastle!

The weekend of 23-24 November, we’re heading up north for a weekend of fun activities with the Newcastle Bears!

Catch the train from Central to Newcastle with the bears in the morning, arriving in Newcastle late morning. Alternatively, you can make your own way and meet us there!

We've got some fun things planned in Newcastle including a walk/tour around the local area. Also, as always, you’re free to explore Newcastle on your own or with friends.

After that, we’re all meeting up to kick on at Bernie’s Bar, Newcastle’s best LGBTQ+ venue, who is hosting Newcastle Bears’ monthly meetup that night! Bernie’s boasts a great dinner menu, as well as a great selection of cocktails. Meet your northern kindred and catch up with the local scene.

We’ve also booked an entire floor of the Ibis Newcastle exclusively for us, with rooms on sale here. We’ve kept aside one room as the playroom, so expect beary shenanigans all night long. Of course if you prefer, you can stay elsewhere, but if you’re planning on booking a hotel, book through us as we’ve secured a great rate. Who knows, if we get enough bears, we might be able to book out the hotel exclusively!

Sunday if you’re not too dusty, we’ll explore the local area with our new friends, and then head home on the train just in time for the Sunday Social at the Townie!
