The dates have been announced for all the auctions in Florida in early 2026. I believe this is the most eventfull time in our industry. Lots of collegues are always present and there are great opportunities for business. The good Florida weather is also not a problem for most people. Below a quick schedule of auctions and events coming up

Ritchie Bros
Ritchie Bros. will host its premier global auction event in Davenport, FL, from February 16 to 20, 2026 – an annual event that attracts thousands of consignors and bidders from all over the world. It is the biggest equipment auction in the world with over 250 million USD of equipment sold in 2025.
There were rumours that there would not be a live auction any more but I can inform you that that is not the case. The Ritchie bros website says : In addition, Day 2 will feature the highly anticipated return of the live ramp sale, bringing back the excitement of heavy machinery rolling across the ramp.
