World Beard and Moustache Championships

On September 1, 2007, competitors of the world's most hirsute faces from the UK, America, Germany and other countries convened for the championships in Brighton.

It was hosted by the Handlebar Club with comedy performer Michael "Atters" Attree acting as chairman and master of ceremonies.

SCAKBMC distributed over $16,000 to local charities via the International Lions Club 49A foundation 501C4 and the Miners & Trappers Ball Inc a 501C3 organizations.

The 12th incarnation of the contest was held near Stuttgart, Germany on November 2, 2013 and was hosted by Belle Moustache Beard and Culture Club.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 championships were postponed until 2023, tentatively pushing back the previously scheduled 2023 Bristol, England competition to 2025.
