You may be thinking about Halloween costumes now, but Movember will be sneaking up on you sooner than you think! Whether you have a moustache or not, this important month is dedicated to raising conversations about men’s health, all while having a lot of fun.
As Movember has grown exponentially since its beginnings in 2003 (it now has approximately 5 million participants worldwide), you can count on finding a local ‘Mo festival near you.
We’ve done the grunt work for you and have found some of the most notable Movember celebrations across the country.
And should you prefer to get involved from the comfort of your own home, remember to enter our ROYALSHAVE MOVEMBER GIVEAWAY! We have 4 categories and we’ll be awarding a prize to the winner of each one!
In addition to the chance to win some primo moustache, beard, and shaving supplies, we will be donating $5 for each participant to the Movember Foundation. Now that’s a win-win.
