![]() Yes, it's that time again...we are on the hunt for volunteers to help welcome and assist our visitors to BearScotFest in October. In exchange for a few hours' work over the weekend, we are offering a free pass to the event, a free event T-shirt, as many Tunnocks Teacakes and Scotch Pies as you can eat...and of course the opportunity to meet and flirt with ALL of the bears! If you are interested, please drop us an email to events@bearscots.org.uk This year we have all of your favourites, including Saturday night at The Caves; our Fun Brunch with the furry boys at Nom de Plume; Welcome Night at CC Blooms; Sunday afternoon at Electric Circus; Mr BearScotFest Contest; Fundraising Prize draw; and of course the ever-popular Pool Party. Our sightseeing option this year is a visit to the Place of Holyroodhouse, the Queen’s official Scottish residence (with great tearoom and gift-shop, of course!) and we are delighted to welcome a veritable cornucopia of DJ talent to the weekend including Hamburg’s DJ Kai, London’s HOT FUZZ DJ Cactushead, Glasgow’s DJ Jamie, Edinburgh’s DJ Blondie and of course, no BearScotFest would be complete without our very own DJs Mischka and Corkie!
