Save The Date: 2010 Beard Ball Announced

Hello Beardos!  Build-A-Beard is proud to announce The 2010 Beard Ball to be held on Thursday, February 4th at Matchless in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.   

What is The 2010 Beard Ball?
A place to show off your beards! And of course, B-A-B loves all facial hair follicles, so please note that if you have a mustache, mutton chops, goatee, or any form of DIY artistic facial hair creations - you are welcomed to attend!  In addition, if you are simply an admirer of facial hair - please come and stroke the egos and beards of those in attendance.  

Why should I attend?
Cause it's The Year of the Beard!  Plus it's only $5 to attend with all proceeds of ticket & door sales going to RightRides.    

How do I buy advanced tickets?
YOU CAN BUY ADVANCED TICKETS HERE.  We suggest you buy a head of time - as this event will sell out. 

What is RightRides?
RightRides is celebrating its 5th year anniversary!  The program builds safer communities by ending gender-based harassment and sexual assault.  They work towards this by community organizing and offering direct service, safety education, and advocacy programs.  Read more: HERE.   

What time does The 2010 Beard Ball begin?
The evening kicks off at 8:00 p.m.  

I love alcohol.  Are there any specials that evening?  
Prohibition Distillery is offering a 8:00-9:00 p.m. specialty cocktail (for only $5) where all sales of the drink during that time frame will be going to RightRides.  Firefly Vodka has graciously offered $5 cocktails (until the cases donated run out!) where a percentage of drink proceeds will go to RightRides.  So please be sure to ask about the specialty drinks upon arrival to help raise funds!

Age?
21 +  We are hoping to see a lot of rikers.   

Who are the bearded bands?
9:00 p.m. Transatlantic FM 

10:00 p.m. Quiet Loudly

11:00 p.m. Julius C

I love winning prizes.  Will you have a raffle?
Raffle tickets will be sold throughout the evening for $1. Lots of local companies (and bearded ones) have donated gifts for the night.  Ask about this upon arrival & be sure to check out the raffle table.
