Gentlemen ... start your whiskers! The 2011 Nevada Day Beard Contest - an annual tradition - is open to anyone with a beard, there is no entry fee, and admission is FREE to all who'd like to watch!

The Beard Contest is held immediately following the Nevada Day Parade (the Parade runs from 10:00am - 1:00pm). The venue for the Beard Contest is the ampitheatre, just south of the Capitol steps in Carson City.

Plaques are awarded in the following categories:

  • longest
  • fullest
  • reddest
  • whitest
  • blackest
  • best salt and pepper
  • best groomed
  • scruffiest
  • most bearded community

Every year Virginia City makes a particularly good showing since they challenged all comers that they could put more bearded men on the Capitol steps than any other community. For the last five years, they have won the "Most Bearded Community" award.
