Bears Sitges Week

During the first week of September, 5000+ bears, chasers, and admirers take over Sitges for 10 days of beach fun, nightly parties, and more!

Bears Sitges Week first took place in 2006 and has consistently grown year after year. Getting there is easy, it's only a 20-minute train ride from Barcelona.

The event now attracts around 5,000 men from around the globe - with many increasingly making the journey from the US. It’s little surprise the most desirable hotels and guesthouses are booked up months in advance.

Most guys spend their days by the beach or pool before enjoying afternoon siestas and evening fun and frolics at the local bars and clubs.

Besides the super-popular nudist zone on Balmins Beach, a stretch of the paseo (seafront) of this quaint Spanish resort is designated as the ‘Bear Village’, and highlights included ‘Bear Crawls’ around the bars and the annual Mr. Bear Sitges contest.
