We have had a good rest over the winter and looking forward to seeing everybody. 2025-2026 Season will be a celebration of our 17th year at the wharf. We welcome back an experienced team and some new faces who will enhance your experience at the venue. We are all very excited to be working together again.
We will re-open on Friday, 19 September 2025, from 4pm. Bear with us for this first weekend, as we get back into our roles and routines. All the bear cubs are not here yet, so be kind and patient. We will be fully awake and alert in no time.
We have a great entertainment line-up this season with live music every Friday and Sunday. The 10th Golden Bear Summer Music Festival will start on Dec 27, 2024 and end on Jan 8, 2025 featuring a wide range of entertainers with different music styles and genres. Except for our closure on Jan 1st, the music festival shows will run daily from 4-7pm.
We will be closed for 2024 Winter from July 1 through early or mid-September. See you in the Spring!
On to our 16th season … but not without thanking the most important people of all - our CUSTOMERS! To our family, the friends we’ve made, the friends we’ve lost, locals and visitors - a huge bear hug to all of you who have supported our business throughout the years. We are so very thankful for your patronage.
Music is an integral part of Golden Bear. We enjoy sharing our love for the arts with our community and customers. The Bear has always been a place where everyone can gather, socialize, sing, dance and appreciate our idyllic surroundings. We support musicians … upcoming talent, as well as seasoned artists, who have contributed to the Golden Bear experience. We thank them all for their amazing performances.
This weekend we celebrate our 15th anniversary … of course, with live music. Come and join us.
Golden Bear would not have succeeded for 15 years without its crew. We have been fortunate to have worked with a very diverse group of individuals … we trained, we taught, we learned from, we encouraged, we mentored, we loved and we lost. They are all part of our Bear family and we thank them immensely for their hard work, their loyalty, their trust and their friendship.
Of course, we has a few horrible experiences with staffing, but who hasn’t. It was educational and we moved on.
Now we look forward to meeting future employees and new members of the Bear team. Interested in joining us?
