Main Event 2026

Main Event 2026

Register. Fundraise. Shave.

Everyone's invited to join us on Saturday, May 2nd from 11 to 3pm at BC Children's Hospital for a fun-filled, family-friendly celebration in support of Balding for Dollars—and at the heart of the event are all the incredible individuals who register to Shave for the Brave and fundraise in support of children and families facing cancer. 

The day is packed with joyful moments, including visits from princesses and superheroes, live music, midway games, and our highly anticipated mystery market where everyone wins. Come cheer on our shavers, soak up the good vibes, and take part in the festivities. 

This year, White Spot will be on site serving up a kid-approved menu  and donating back a portion of their sales to Balding for Dollars. To round off your appetites, don't forget to visit our drink & snack tents to grab some fresh Starbucks Coffee or a cool scoop from Earnest ice Cream, and so much more. 

Click JOIN US to take part in the 2026 Shave for the Brave and start making a difference today!

My pleasure to join this cause for Children's Hospital. The care and support we received from Children hospital meant more than I can express during my son's surgery 2 wks ago. Wishing all the children and families strength, comfort and the very best!
