One of our biggest events is back for another year. 'UnderGlow' is back! Welcome to UnderBear with a UV / glow twist. This event is always a sell out for Brisbears, so get your tickets early. This is one glow party you are not going to want to miss. Wear a jock that's white or fluro coloured, or a harness that glows or is UV reflective. The Bunker Bar will glow with a myriad of UV colours and shades of white. Fluorescent green, pink, yellow, and orange are the UV colours that will light up your night. Your music master for Underglow is the incredible TONKY, who will be on the decks from open til close. Our favourite cloakers, Brisbane Frontrunners will be manning the cloak room for the night. Dress regulation for the night will be underwear (jocks, boxers, jock strap, etc.) with no pants. T-Shirts and singlets can be worn, but you will find that after a while being in your underwear ends up being your preference. Instead of our usual midnight raffles we'll be drawing lucky door prizes. Our members draw has also jackpotted to $1200! You have to be a financial member and be there to claim the cash!  Be sure to check your membership is current to be in the running here: https://brisbears.tidyhq.com/   This is a mens only event. TONKY Tonky does not stare blankly into a crowd while he DJs, he's busy doing some tricky ass shit to make a song go from a 8/10 to a 10/10.  This boy loves house music more than he loves beers, bears and burgers. He ain't afraid to go deep with the crowd, bringing a distinct vibe to every dance floor, as well as producing and playing his own style of tasty records.  Combine this with being a regular name in the ARIA club charts, one of Australia's most technically skilled DJs and have a hoard of original records and official remixes under his belt for producers such as Roger Sanchez, Wh0, Jolyon Petch and DJ Femme.  He'll keep the crowd sweaty into the early hours of the morning.
