The BarberPolls Awards Gala and Symposium (BAGS) is an event for Barbers, Stylists, and the Clients they serve.
#BAGS2026BOSTON will uniquely illustrate and capture the purpose of leveraging barbershop and salon environments, for their resources, their individual skillsets, and their bold brand of showmanship!
Our event is not to be in competition with other trade shows and events around the country. Our sole purpose is to expand the capabilities and relationships that our barbers and stylists can leverage, from their environments.
This event will serve as an early entry event that will save the company thousands in marketing expenses down the line, and prepare all parties for this type of media and environmental integration.
