The show usually takes place in November and features children of all ages with any talents (even if their talent is talking and loving toys!).
Last years show impressed viewers and gave the whole country a boost mid-pandemic having little stars on such as Adam King who wowed the world with his great attitude and virtual hug and Michael Moloney who was surprised with Dermot Kennedy while singing one of his songs.
We recently asked host Ryan Tubridy about this year’s Toy Show and although he stayed tight-lipped about the theme of the show this year, he did reveal that the team are already hard at work behind the scenes; “The planning for the Toy Show begins at about 12.05 on the night of the Toy Show.”
The host shared that roughly six weeks ago they had a big meeting about the theme and when they told him the character they think he should play he said; “my jaw hit the ground I picked it up again and said I’m not so sure. ”
Continuing Ryan said; “And then, just when you think you’ve got an idea, someone else comes along with, an even more interesting one. So we’re just being curveballs on this one. And when I say curveballs they’re great curveballs and nothing’s weird or unfortunate, but we have very definite plans.”
