HISTORY

The Great British Barber Bash Background

How it started

Barber Bash started in 2012 and we have been selling out shows at cool venues ever since. Our main focus was to bring a high energy on trend show for Barbers to the Barbering community.
Featuring top name barbers and also involving and introducing as many new faces as possible. Prior to our event you would see the same barbers cutting at each and every shows, we wanted to shake things up and change this. Over the years, we have introduced many new top name Barbers to the industry which has given us great pride.

Where we have been

Over the last nine years we have hosted over 35 events across the UK. London, Manchester, Glasgow, Liverpool, Dublin, Belfast, Edinburgh and Amsterdam. The shows have been extremely well received in each city. Our philosophy is that not everything should happen in London by taking our event across the UK, and beyond it, opens up the opportunity to come and see what is happening at the forefront of Barbering.

Our supporters

From the beginning of Barber Bash, we have been supported by some amazing companies and exhibitors. Brands such as Osmo, Dense, Oil Can, Reuzel, Jameson, VTC, Ohka Scissors and many more, have sponsored us and exhibited at our events. If you would like to be at one of our shows or Sponsor our team, please get in touch, we would love to hear from you.

The Future

Barber Bash is getting stronger and stronger. Our following is growing on social media and the crowds and audiences at our events are getting larger. With four shows planned for the upcoming year it's going to be a busy time for all involved. London, Liverpool, Edinburgh and Dublin are all planned.

We will be visiting many colleges for showcase presentations, look and learns and CPD courses. We will also be hosting inspirational workshops across the UK, Ireland and beyond.

If you want to get involved with us, please contact us. We would love to hear from any brands, product companies and of course any new barbering talent.
