2026 Speech Contests
Speech Contests will be held in 2026
District 54 will conduct the International Speech Contest and the Tall Tales Speech Contest in 2026. All contests will be held in person.
Contests are a great opportunity for members of our clubs to showcase the best speakers as they compete, starting at the club level.
To be eligible to compete, a member must be a paid member of a club in the Area, Division, and District in which they are competing, and the club must be in good standing (minimum of 8 paid members). For the International Speech Contest, the contestant must also have completed Levels 1 and 2 in a Path or have earned a Distinguished Toastmaster (DTM) award.
Contest dates will be posted below. If you would like to assist in any of these contests, please contact your Division or Area Director.
