About the holiday
Brief History
Everyone in the world celebrates the day when people have beards. It is on the first Saturday of September. People didn’t shave until 4000 years ago. Men had beards then. Beards were good for keeping warm and for protecting your face if you got hit. We don’t know when World Beard Day started, but some people think it was in 800 AD. Then, people didn’t have a special day for beards. They had parties for beards in different places. Some parties were crazy. For example, in Dönskborg in Sweden, people without beards were sent to the forest. People with beards burned pictures of people without beards. Also, in Spain, people with beards and people without beards fought in a boxing match. The man with the beard had a sharp stick. It is bad to shave on World Beard Day. In some places, people with beards are honored on that day.
