European Taxidermy Championships ETC

For over 25 years, the ETC have been among the most prestigious competitions worldwide.

Preparators from many countries showcase their skills, learn from each other, and exchange ideas with experts. The European Taxidermy Championships® are being held every 3 years and will be moving to another European country every time, if possible. It is a competition open to taxidermists of all experiences and is being held on the highest possible level. Next to the competition it is a moment to

gather and meet colleagues, learn new techniques in exciting seminars and stay motivated within our beautiful profession.

Right now, roe deer fawns are being born across Europe. One of the most fleeting moments in wildlife, and for many taxidermists, the roe deer is more than just a category. It's a craft statement. A mother and fawn composition, only possible through natural mortality, is one of the rarest things you'll ever see on a show floor. When one shows up at the ETC, you stop. Every time. 🦌

Just let us know you're in and how many pieces you are planning to bring. It helps us plan, and it gets you the early bird price.
