It’s that magical time when the flannel comes out, the kilts fly high, and the pups get extra sniffy. TARTANS & TAILS is here - and we’re plaid to the bone, baby!
The Hot Sauce ft. DJ Joshua Reid is turning the dance floor into a tartan-twirling vortex where bears, pups, and handlers collide in a flurry of grooves and growls.
This isn’t just a party. It’s an off leash plaidapalooza.
This is... Tartans & Tails!
Bear Ball finally returns to the Commons room located in the dungeon of the Atlantica Hotel in Halifax. Guests who book a room are also invited to the Wet Fur Pool Party at the Atlantica’s pool (2nd floor) prior to Bear Ball. Due to hotel policy, only hotel guests may attend this super fun meat up. Book a room using our discounted group rate of $229/night (standard rate is $399/night) here:
https://reservations.travelclick.com/72818?groupID=4815237
Or you may call the Atlantica at (902) 423-1161 and provide the group code “Bear Ball.” Our block has limited availability at the discounted rate, so we recommend booking early as the discounted-rate rooms will sell out.
Bear Ball is celebratory event where bears, cubs, otters, furries and pups can dance, nudge and mingle with their friends and admirers. Everyone is welcome to join in and get sweaty. Whether you dress up or dress down, tie it up or let it all hang out, always be body proud!
Bear Ball will feature multiple bars that accept both cash and credit/debit cards. You may also start a tab with our friendly bartenders.
**A portion of the proceeds and all the gratuities from clothes-check will be donated to HEAL Nova Scotia.**
*Please refrain from wearing scented products in respect for those with such sensitivities.*
*Please ensure appropriate attire and covering when exiting from the Commons Room*
