Bear Week: Bear Bash ’27
in Puerto Vallarta

Bear Week: Bear Bash ’27 is coming to STUDS Bear & Leather Bar in Puerto Vallarta from January 24 through January 31, 2027. For one unforgettable week, STUDS will celebrate the strength, confidence, humor, style, and community that make bear culture so special. Expect a high-energy gathering created for bears, cubs, otters, admirers, leather lovers, and everyone who feels at home in the STUDS family.

Throughout the week, Bear Bash ’27 will feature themed nights, music, DJs, contests, drink specials, games, giveaways, special guests, and plenty of opportunities to meet people from around the world. Each night will bring a different vibe—from laid-back social moments and gear-focused celebrations to dance-floor energy and late-night parties—while keeping the welcoming, playful, and unapologetically bold spirit of STUDS at the center.

Puerto Vallarta is one of the world’s favorite LGBTQ+ destinations, and Bear Week is the perfect time to experience its warmth, nightlife, beaches, and community. Whether you are arriving with friends, traveling solo, or meeting up with your chosen family, Bear Bash ’27 will be your home base for an incredible week of connection and celebration.

Come dressed in your best leather, harness, gear, tank top, or whatever makes you feel most like yourself. This is a week to show up, let loose, celebrate your people, and create memories that last long after the final party.

STUDS is planning an expanded Bear Week experience for 2027, including VIP opportunities, featured entertainment, special programming, and surprise moments throughout the week. More details, including the full schedule, ticket information, themed nights, DJs, contests, and VIP packages, will be announced soon.
