The three-day competition will attract beard enthusiasts from around the world more than 1000 competitors and fans. Every two years, the WBMC showcases the very best in men’s whiskers and unites beards in a cultural event like no other. For the first time at WBMC, we will showcase the Whiskerina (ladies) categories. Projected to be the largest competition to date, the three-day event will include live entertainment, local food vendors, family-friendly activities and dozens of facial hair competitions—all onsite at Austin’s premier downtown performing arts center.
