BearScotFest 2014 - Dates Confirmed!

23/12/2013

Believe it or not, planning for BSF2014 is already well underway. As a matter of fact our committee had begun planning it before BSF2013 had even taken place, such is the enormity of the behind-the-scenes operation needed to put together one of Britain's biggest and friendliest bear events! (What? You thought we just phoned round a few venues a week or two in advance then turned up with smiles on our faces and our fingers crossed?!)

We can't give away too much just yet but let's just say, it's gonna be big! Put the dates in your diary now, we can confirm it's all happening on the weekend of Friday 3rd - Sunday 5th October 2014 with the usual "Early Bears" event on the Thursday evening.

Hi Robbie - I'm not actually involved, so I'm sure the Bearscots guys will get back to you later.

Out of the five venues WE went to this year (The Street, The Caves, CC Blooms, Electric Circus & New Town Bar) - I would suggest that the New Town Bar has the potential to prove the most difficult (it's a Basement based bar and the toilets, etc are even further underground).

However; Electric Circus, CC Blooms & The Street - while based over several floors, both offer a great atmosphere on their entry level without having to Navigate any steps.

Whilst 'The Caves' have a very popular Mezzanine floor, the ground floor offers Bars, Facilities but due to the historical nature of the venue, the ground surface isn't the most level.

Again, I'm sure the guys from Bearscots would be glad to give you a full update in an email!

Hi Robbie,

not all of our venues offer great access but many (including CC Blooms, The Caves and Electric Circus) offer ease of access. We've certainly had guys with limited mobility attend in previous year (including wheelchair users) and they certainly seem to have enjoyed the weekend. If you can let us know your needs in advance we'll do everything we can to ensure you do too!
