Based in Sydney, Australia, and founded in 1995, Harbour City Bears is a social club for hairy gay men, their admirers and friends. Actually people of all shapes and sizes and degrees of hirsuteness come along to enjoy the friendly atmosphere of the HCB events.
We meet weekly on Friday nights at the Flinders Hotel as well as organise a variety of other social events. Information on all events, the club, membership and our premium annual event, Bear Essentials™, can be found on this website.
Whether you are a local or a visitor, you are welcome to join in our events. Look out for the club desk on our weekly night at the Flinders where you can obtain information on events, join up or purchase club merchandise.
