Around 100 proud beard wearers came together for the Beard Olympics and the German Beard Championships to compete with each other in categories such as “Moustache Dali,” “Whiskers Freestyle,” and “Full Beard Natural with Styled Upper Lip.”
“The Beard Olympics is international, so participants from all countries can take part. The German Championship is only for German citizens or beard wearers who are members of a German beard club,” Willi Preuss, outgoing president of the East Bavarian Beard and Moustache Club, explained of the two distinct contests.
