This event is held in conjunction with the MAA’s Annual Conference featuring some of the top Auction Industry speakers in the nation. “Many do not realize that auctions are one of the oldest professions in history. They date back to the Pilgrim’s arrival on America’s Eastern Shores in the 1600s.” said Michigan Auctioneers Association Executive Director, Tricia Wiltjer. “Our auctioneer and ringman competitions are open to the general public and free to attend. It’s good old fashioned fun with modern flair for the whole family.”
Join us for the most exciting part of the MAA’s Annual Conference! The Michigan Auctioneer Championship is the biggest and best competition in Michigan where Auctioneers gather to show off their bid calling skills and compete in a friendly competition with their peers. Contestants will compete in the preliminary round by auctioning two items. The top competitors who proceed to the finals will not only auction more specialty items, but they will go through an interview portion. At the end of the evening, the 2017 Michigan Auctioneer Champion will be announced!
