Meet Harry the Huggable Bear

Have you seen the teddy bear in a Santa hat on Bermuda Street? That’s Harry!

Harry the Huggable Bear is a larger than life memory of our childhood and companions on life’s journey. A reminder of simple times when imagination could take you anywhere.

Always young at heart, just like we are here at Esprit de Vie.

Harry will be travelling around the Gold Coast as part of SWELL Sculpture Festival, before making a home for himself in Esprit de Vie Mermaid Waters’ sculpture garden. A favourite amoungst grandkids, Harry will be waiting to get his photo taken with you and your family.

Currently, Harry is sitting onsite at Esprit de Vie Mermaid Waters in his Santa hat to help spread the Christmas cheer. Next time you drive along Southport-Burleigh Road on the Gold Coast, be sure to keep an eye out for him.
