Check Out the Line-Up for IBC 2023
International Bear Convergence, more commonly referred to as IBC, makes its return from February 23 – 27, 2023.
Hosted at Hotel ZOSO (formerly the Hard Rock Palm Springs), this annual bear run brings together the furriest and sexiest men from all over the world. They congregate at the daily pool parties for fun in the sun and of course spend their evenings dancing the night away at big lavish parties with the hottest DJs from around the globe.
Of course with fabulous Palm Springs at your fingertips, you might prefer to spend some of your time taking in the sites and for that, we recommend you take a look at our queer travel guide.
