Whether you stand before the judges in person, compete from afar online, or test your discipline in the traditional Mustache Growing Competition, know this: the credit belongs to the one who shows up. If you have ever thought, “Maybe next year,” this is your year.
We are soaking our feet and taking a break from another fantastic show! But save the date for next year!
Whether you've been growing it for years or just a few months, now is the time to let your beard shine. We'll have several categories, so there's a place for every style and size.
We all know folks who could grow a full beard by 16 (you should have seen my sister!), so be sure to have your valid, government-issued, up-to-date, photo ID on you. We won't let you in unless you're 21 and you can prove it to the man with your photo ID! Please note, while we love tiny lumberjacks and four-footed, furry ones, this festival is not the place for them, but they're welcome to watch the events from outside of the fence!
Our charity will be FLOC (For Love of Children - Dayton)) which has been the charity for the past events.
We'll be at Steel Hands Brewing, raising money for two great local charities: the Triad's Kisses4Kate and Safe Alliance in Charlotte.
The festivities will be held in and around the West Plains Civic Center. While some things, such as games and displays, will be scheduled inside, the music and vendors will be outside, along with some of the other activities. But in the event of inclement weather, activities can be moved inside.
