Annual Cardigan Auction
Cardigan's 33rd Annual Auction will be held on Saturday, October 23, 2021.
Join the Cardigan Confidential team to help discover who catnapped our beloved mascot Joe Cougar as we get fired up for our 33rd Annual Auction!
Tune in weekly for video updates to meet the suspects, and watch along as Mr. and Mrs. Day investigate this shocking crime in the Cougarmobile. Will they manage to track down the culprit, was it an inside job?
Find out the answers during our grand finale live stream show, which will be broadcast on October 23 from 8:30 to 10:00 a.m. EDT (Saturday morning of family weekend).
You can support our efforts to return Joe Cougar to his rightful home with an auction sponsorship, an item donation, and, of course, by bidding early and high from October 17 to October 23.
Auction items include one of a kind experiences, online gift cards, vintage Cardigan gear, and much more! Visit the auction website to stay up to date on all the newest items and watch the video below to view highlights from last year’s grand finale show.

The proceeds from the Auction directly support The Annual Fund for Cardigan and impact every student, helping to provide resources such as technology, financial aid, facilities maintenance, community involvement, and so much more. Last year’s Auction was an overwhelming success, raising over $450,000 to help support these goals, and we expect nothing less this year!
Please note that the Auction Website (where you can see and bid on the items) is a different link than the Video Livestream of the Virtual Family Weekend & Auction video event. We suggest you plan to watch the livestream on a computer and place your bids using a phone.
