# Add auction collection to the main menu

Adding an auction collection to your store’s **main menu** makes it easy for customers to find all live auctions in one place (for example, a **Live Auctions** page).

This guide shows you how to add an auction collection to your storefront menu.

Before you start:  You already have a Shopify **collection** that contains auction products\
(for example: *Live Auctions*)

### ✅ What customers see on the storefront

On your store:

* Customers click **Auctions** in the main menu
* They see all products currently running as auctions
* Clicking a product opens the auction product page with the auction widget

This makes auctions more visible and easier to discover.
