One of the highlights of the bear week programme is always our Mister Bear Gran Canaria competition. Big prizes and, above all, big fun is the greatest award for contestants. The jury is always professionallly related to the bear event and fashion world. Actually, winners and runner-ups are usually chosen to represent Bear Carnival on the advertising campaign for the following edition.

Mister Bear Gran Canaria is held at Kiki Bar, a free access venue (our main venue, actually) so the attendance is usually in the hundreds! Maximum number of candidates is usually around 10, so please register to make sure you can participate!
