Livestock Marketing Leaders Converge on Black Hills for 2026 LMA Convention and WLAC

The Livestock Marketing Association's 2026 Annual Convention and World Livestock Auctioneer Championship are headed to the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota!

LMA Region Executive Officer Bryce Dibbern shares why excitement is building for this year's event in Deadwood and at St. Onge Livestock. From a premier lineup of cattle and the industry's top auctioneers competing for a world title, to educational sessions, networking opportunities, and discussions on the future of livestock marketing, this event has something for everyone involved in the cattle business.

Dibbern explains why the World Livestock Auctioneer Championship remains the most prestigious competition in North America and highlights the important role auction markets play in supporting producers, rural communities, and true price discovery.

Plus, Billings, Montana's Joe Goggins will officially assume the presidency of the Livestock Marketing Association during the convention.

Whether you're a cattle producer, auction market owner, livestock marketer, or industry supporter, this is one event you won't want to miss.
