2013 Coney Island Beard and Moustache Competition Set for Sideshows by the Seashore, 9/7

Coney Island USA Presents: The 6th Annual Coney Island Beard and Moustache Competition at Sideshows by the Seashore!

The strangest and most extravagant beards and moustaches descend upon Coney Island to see whose facial hair reigns supreme. Founded in 2008, by the mustachioed maestro Donny Vomit the Coney Island Beard and Moustache Competition has grown to become one of Coney Island's most unique evenings of entertainment. Over the past six years, hundreds of bearded men (and women) have competed to take home the much coveted Beard & Moustache Fez trophy.

Categories include Best in Show, Best Moustache Styled, Best Moustache Natural, Best Beard Styled, Best Beard Natural, Best Fake Beard, Best Fake Moustache and of course, Worst in Show.

This year's event will feature entertainment by an authentic bearded woman, the multi-talented Jennifer Miller, Cardone the Magician from the New York Variety All-Stars and straight razor shaves for guests by Mike Haar of East Village Radio.

Goorin Hats of Williamsburg will be vending their latest styles of millinery masterpieces in the Freak Bar.

Join master of ceremonies Adam RealMan as he leads the panel of hirsute celebrity judges to weed out the best whiskers in New York City and beyond.
