****London Bearfest 2014 will take place across the capital between May 18-May 26, 2014\. Bears, cubs, otters and admirers will be traveling to the capitol from near and far to enjoy the festivities.**

Highlights of the celebration so far announced involve an Opening Ceremony, The London Bearfest Bank Holiday Party, a Film Festival and a special event hosted by London’s legendary nightclub, *Meat.*

More intimate events will also be included, such as restaurant outings, cabaret, sing-a-longs and ‘The Bear Bar Hop’, which entails a bar crawl exclusively for Bears.

**Kurt Hoffman, Artist Director of Bearfest 2014, said:** *“I’m extremely excited and really proud to bring together the bear community with the very first London Bearfest being held in one of the greatest cities in the world”.*

The festival, which aims to appeal to all ages, will celebrate in some of London’s key areas, from Soho, Hoxton and Marble Arch, to Waterloo Vauxhall and Clapham.
