With 2023 in the rear view mirror and a shiny new one, there is a lot to look forward to! We kick off with London Toy Fair celebrating its 70th year at Olympia on 23rd January, the trade’s annual pilgrimage to the hallowed halls of Olympia. With the show being sold out for some time there is so much to see, with both Spin Master and TOMY returning for the first time since the pandemic in addition to so many companies exhibiting, there’s a lot to pack into just three days. Don’t miss the return of the Toy Industry Awards which is an in person event.
Hot on its heels, is Spielwarenmesse in Nuremberg from 30th January. The exhibition returned last year with a bang, and this years event has swelled to over 2,140 exhibitors. As Christian Ulrich spokesperson for the executive board at Spielwarenmesse says: “the attendance of well-known key players and the appearance of on-trend start-ups; the fact all relevant decision-makers are attending, the opening up of new markets; the ability it offers to maintain business relationships and the Inspiration it provides for range selection.” We can’t agree more that this is a show not to be missed.
Finally, there’s Spring Fair, while not as toy focused as London Toy Fair and Nuremberg, Spring Fair has much to offer. In addition to toys with Spring Fair being a multi-category show you might find something else you weren’t expecting.
It sure is a busy and exciting one. Make sure you visit us on our stand at London Toy Fair stand E1, and as ever, it’s the first stand on the left as you come through the main entrance, you can’t miss us.
From all of us at TnP, we wish you a successful year ahead.
