What Is World Beard Day? A Look Into This Most Off The Wall Holiday

Like many great traditions and stories, World Beard Day can trace its origins back to Viking roots. It is said that the Norseman of the time held regular beard-focused celebrations as early as the 800’s AD. To this very day, we still carry on these hallowed traditions, although in a more modern sense. Although a good Viking based brawl to the death to determine the best beard sounds fun on paper, it has been updated to a more friendly form of competition. Modern World Beard Day celebrations definitely nod to the ancient heritage with bearded revelry, storytelling, and good-natured camaraderie.

Beard Competitions & Festive Showdowns

Across cities worldwide, men enter beard competitions—ranging from “best full beard” to creative or stylized stunts. These contests often come with themed parties, prizes, and photo-worthy moments worthy of their own entry into the history books. Do you know someone with an epic beard that would enjoy such a competition? We would love to have them show up and put their skills to the test!

Beard-Friendly Celebrations & Charity Events

When it comes to celebrating World Beard Day, we love to have our fun and maybe imbibe a frosty beer or two, but with all of this fun comes some serious business: helping those in need by donating to charities. All around the world, different businesses, organizations, and people gather donations in order to help their cause. It’s great to be able to have a lot of fun celebrating with friends and family and to also be able to help a good cause at the same time.
