About BiggerEvents
Community-built. Volunteer-run.
Our Story
BiggerEvents, LLC was founded in 2018, with a simple purpose: to create premium social events for the gay Chub/Chaser and Bear communities, offering welcoming spaces built by the community, for the community.
In July 2023, BiggerEvents entered a new chapter with a change in ownership, bringing fresh energy and ambition to our mission. The momentum that followed led us to launch two brand-new experiences in 2024: BiggerCruise, our community’s first social event at sea, and BiggerBash, a milestone celebration of our partner, BiggerCity.
Today, alongside our flagship BiggerVegas gathering, we continue to grow while staying grounded in the values that started it all.
Mission & Values
What guides every event we produce.
Community First
Every decision starts with our community. We exist to bring people together and strengthen the bonds that make us who we are.
Body Positivity
We celebrate gay men of size and those who love them. Our events are spaces of confidence, acceptance, and joy.
Premium Experiences
From exciting venues to thoughtful details, we create experiences that deliver value and help every guest feel welcomed and celebrated.
The BiggerCity Partnership
BiggerCity is a long-running online community and dating platform serving the gay Chub/Chaser and Bear communities. For years, it has been a digital home where members connect, chat, build friendships, and find belonging.
As our primary partner and sponsor, BiggerCity helps bring those online connections into real-world spaces. Together, we create events that celebrate our members, strengthen community bonds, and provide safe, welcoming, body-positive environments.
Our 2024 BiggerBash also marked BiggerCity’s silver anniversary—a fitting tribute to a platform that has played such an important role in supporting and connecting our community.
How We Operate
BiggerEvents is largely volunteer-run, with staff drawn from the community itself. Our team members give their time, talent, and passion to bring these events to life. This ”by us, for us” model keeps our gatherings authentic, welcoming, and rooted in the people they serve.
When you attend a BiggerEvents production, you are being welcomed by your own community: fellow members who care deeply about creating events that feel thoughtful, inclusive, and true to who we are.
