XXL: Valentines

15/02/14: XXL at Pulse had more than our hearts throbbin’ this Valentine’s Day weekend as the Teddy Bears and Care Bears came together in a party that seemed to be custom-made just for them.

A chance to cuddle the stuffin right outta your muffin never seemed so right. Four bars packed to the rafters with furry fun and so much beefcake on the dance floor Cupid was working overtime.

The tripped out lounge blossomed into a lover’s lane of rosy hues perfect for finding love among the bruins.

XXL’s Papa Bear Mark Ames treated us to a big heart-shaped box chock full o’ gooey sweet DJs Andy Almighty, Alex Logan, Christian M, Joe Egg and Stuart Style, each bite filled with savoury sensual pleasure. An aural candy stripe of colourful beats.

Buffed up angel-winged devils frolicked with a bevy of stuffed bears in love, seeking love or just love-on-the-run in the chill out room where there was more than just love in the air. “I love this place,” grinned Greek musclebear Evangelo, “the men, the music, the friendly crowd. They make every day here feel like Valentine’s Day.”
