HAVE a show-worthy mo? Put it to good use as the Ballarat Beard & Stache Competition is on again.<\/p>\n

Judged on 28 May, the annual event celebrates beards and moustaches of all kinds, with several categories for those with whimsical whiskers. With more than $1000 in prizes the Beard & Stache Competition is a highlight of the Ballarat Heritage Festival program<\/p>\n

Those with a passion for beards and moustache come from far and wide to show off their style, from locals to interstate facial hair enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

Punters are invited to attend the competition in person at Hop Temple for the first time in two years.<\/p>\n

This iconic venue, tucked down a laneway in the heart of Ballarat, is one of the city\u2019s most beautiful buildings in one of the most vibrant precincts.<\/p>\n

Live entertainment and the venue\u2019s trademark smoked meats and extensive beverage line-up will make for a fun and delicious afternoon.<\/p>\n

Categories include Full Beard Natural (20cm to infinity), Full Beard Natural (10cm to 20cm), Verdi (styled, 10cm and under), Moustache and Partial Beard.<\/p>\n

There will also be a Just for Fun (freestyle) category for ladies, gentleman and children who want to display their own creativity. This can entail any kind of medium, think faux facial hair with flair.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t have to have a beard, or a big moustache, to come along,\u201d said organiser Brayden Dorney.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is just a day of appreciation for facial hair whatever that may be.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re really looking forward to getting together for good food, good beer and good beards.\u201d Ballarat Beard & Stache Competition.\u201d<\/p>\n

The event grows on Saturday, 28 May from 12pm at Hop Temple.<\/p>\n
