Men with facial hair of every style will be on display on November 20th in downtown Billings, at the inaugural Battle of the Beards. If you're a bearded Bro or a mustache man, come join the fun for a great cause.

The event is hosted by Celebrate for Life MT and will be held at Club Lux at 1123 First Ave N. Celebrate for Life MT raises money for our local Relay for Life. Many of us only think about Relay for Life once a year, but serious fundraisers work year-round.  Celebrate for Life MT describes its group,

Block party meets Relay For Life.
Luminarias, live music, race cars, community.
It’s fun. It’s different. It’s fierce.
Because cancer doesn’t get to win.

Billings Battle of the Beards absolutely lands in the "It's fun" and "It's different" categories.

Everything should be perfect.

Multiple categories for beards, mustaches, and first responders.

The fun thing about beards and moustaches is that there are SO many different ways to grow and trim them. Long, bushy biker beards. Billy Goat beards. The Goatee, the Lumberjack, the Abe Lincoln. I've never seen my father without his Ulysses S. Grant-style beard.

Don't even get me started on Moustaches.

Perhaps you've seen photos of those international moustache competitions. They're WILD. Some of the guys must spend hours twisting, waxing, and styling their creative facial hair styles. Who knows what we'll see in this category on November 20th?

Categories at Battle of the Beards include:

  • Best Full Beard
  • Best Mustache
  • Best Partial Beard
  • Best Freestyle Beard
  • Best Freestyle Mustache
  • Best in Show
  • Special Category: First Responder Mustache Showdown (I love this. We all know that cops and firemen rock those staches with pride.)
