What is International Fake Moustache Day?

International Fake Moustache Day is the premier cross-border, artificial, facial hair celebration.

International?

Not yet. But my grandpappy told me to aim high.

Why February 3rd?

February 3rd approximates the winter Moustache Festival on the ancient druidic calendar. (Most druidic fake moustaches were made from apple boughs.)

Really?

Um, no. But the “three” in February 3rd looks kinda like a sideways moustache.

Who runs internationalfakemoustacheday.org?

We are a collection of volunteer and professional fake moustache enthusiasts.

How long have you been doing this?

International Fake Moustache Day is in its third year.

What are your goals?

1. World Domination

2. Find employment which is both creatively and economically fulfilling.

3. Find someone who makes me laugh and fall in love with them.

4. Finish this shoddy website.

What are your organization’s goals?

1. Make International Fake Moustache Day our first true national holiday. (See our Support Page.)

2. Take International Fake Moustache Day international. In 2008 we’re targeting Canada, Austria, Italy, and the Ukraine!

3. File for 501(c)3 status and make ourselves a non-profit. It’s not like we’re making profits anyhow.

4. Get corporate sponsorship. We need a source of discounted faux stashes.

5. Expand our “Fake Moustaches for Kids in Need” and “Fake Moustaches for Academic All-Stars” programs. Fundamentally, it’s about the kids. [If you know a kid in need or an academic all-star sans moustache, have them contact us and we’ll gladly send them out a free fake moustache.]

6. Bring back high-paying moustache-manufacturing jobs to the heartland of America.

7. Develop the Bio-stash, a renewable, sustainable, hypoallergenic, edible fake moustache. Let’s end our dependence on foreign oil!

Is this a legal holiday?

Well, as of yet, it isn’t illegal.

What happened to Interstellar Fake Moustache Day?

We had significant organizational differences with our Alpha Centauri branch and have respectfully decided to part ways.

Does your organization have a working relationship with Intrastellar Fake Moustache Day?

Absolutely not! Intrastellar Fake Moustache Day is a thinly veiled front for exploitative corporate interests who wish to take advantage of cheap, indigenous Martian labor under the guise of providing them with fake moustaches.

Moustache or Mustache?

Moustache.

How do you say International Fake Moustache Day in German?

Der Internationalgefalschteschnurbarttag

French?

La Fête mondiale des fausses moustaches

Spanish?

Dìa internacional de los bigotes falsos

Are the fake moustaches international or the day?

We’re saying the day. But, both really.

Where do I find out about events in my area?

Check our Events Page.

An event in my area isn’t listed!/What if I would like to organize an event in my area?

There are so many fake moustache celebrations going on, that sometimes we miss a few. If we’ve missed yours, or if you’ve just organized a new one, let us know and we’ll add it to our Events Page.

Are fake moustaches safe for children?

Depends on both the moustaches and the children. When in doubt, consult your pediatrician.

I already have a real moustache. Is it safe for me to wear a fake moustache too?

Certainly. Just make sure the fake moustache is on top.

Are fake moustaches safe for pets?

In most cases, yes. But we recommend against using fake moustaches on pets. Many pets already have natural moustaches in which they look best.

How do chicks feel about guys in fake moustaches?

Generally, chicks dig guys in fake moustaches.
