International Bear Convergence (IBC) is the premier winter Bear Event in Palm Springs, California, welcoming thousands of frisky bears, muscle bears, cubs, chasers, chubs, admirers & their fans to have the time of their lives! The four-day event comes to life with DJs, live entertainment and thousands of bears from around the globe. In 2026, we broke all previous attendance records. In 2027 we expect to do it again, thanks to you, our awesome attendees & supporters.
During the day kick back and enjoy pool parties with music provided by world renown DJs at the fabulous Hotel ZOSO pool. With multiple bars, cabanas, outdoor lounge areas and sun deck area overlooking all the action at the pool. You’re destined to have a fantastic day. After the sun goes down, evenings will heat up with high-energy dance parties, drag shows, & comedy shows. You can chill out in the lounge, check out downtown or shop in our vendor mall.
