Prepare your facial hair for one of the premier bearding competitions of the summer! The Madison Beard Wearer’s Union Local 608 has once again teamed up with Remington to present to you the 2nd Annual MIDWEST MUSTACHE AND BEARD WEARER’S CHAMPIONSHIP!!

We’ve got a lot in store for you! This year’s comp will be held at the historic Orpheum Madison and all proceeds from this event will go to Gilda’s Club Madison.

The night before the competition on Friday, July 17th, we’ll be kicking off the weekend at Beard Night with the help of the Madison Mallards.

If you are coming from out of town, the Best Western Plus Inn On The Park is the official hotel of the MMBWC. This hotel is within walking distance of the Orpheum and they are offering special rates to those travelling for this event. To get the discount, be one of the first 30 people to reference “2015 Midwest Beard Championships Block” when booking your room. Prices are as follows (for a 2 night minimum stay):

1 Bed = 159.00 + tax
2 Bed = 179.00 + tax
Suite = $199.00 + tax

There are only 5 rooms available at a discounted rate for Saturday night only, so BOOK NOW!
