Speech contests are an important part of the Toastmasters educational program. They provide an opportunity for Toastmasters to gain speaking experience, as well as an opportunity for other Toastmasters to learn by observing proficient speakers and organizing events outside their club.

Our 2024 contests will be held virtually, via Zoom. Join the representatives from our Area N3 and Area N4 clubs as they compete in their area-level International Speech & Table Topics® Contests!

See the Toastmasters International 2023–2024 Speech Contest Rulebook for eligibility requirements (and all other rules), and the District 28 contest resources page for more information on running, supporting, or competing in speech contests.

Logistics

• Each club in good standing in Area N3 and Area N4 can send up to two contestants for each contest.
