More about BARBERFEST

We listened hard about the stuff you love about events, and the stuff you don’t. We know you want to immerse yourself in both creative and business education, so we’ve got two separate stages – the Modern Barber Inspiration stage and the Business Learning Stage, sponsored by NHBF. You want to get to know brands that will help you build your business and make your life easier. So we’ve got pop-up stands from brands including MVRCK by Mitch and Dark Stag. And finally, you want a place to hang out and chat with your industry peers, drink a beer (no pressure though!). You’ll be able to enjoy the vibes in the Networking Hubs, sponsored by MVRCK by Mitch and PPL PRS Music.

 

Brand pop-ups include: VTCT, Dark Stag, Kovas, Axiom Men’s Grooming, Mike Taylor Education, MVRCK by Mitch and Dowa International.

 

We’re also every excited to announce we are running the first-ever Raw Talent Barbering Competition sponsored by VTCT in association with Mike Taylor Education. It’s designed for new barbers of various levels (student, apprentice and junior barbers). You can watch the live final at BARBERFEST.
