Meet with 75+ Manufacturers in September at The Toy Association’s LA Fall Preview

July 8, 2024 | The countdown is officially on for The Toy Association’s LA Fall Preview, taking place in September at 2250 East Imperial Highway in El Segundo, CA. Retailers and industry professionals can now register to connect with more than 75 manufacturers all under one roof throughout the entire month, with a dedicated market week (including not-to-miss industry networking events) taking place September 9 to 13.

“With less than two months to go, fall preview season is just around the corner!” said Kimberly Carcone, executive vice president of global market events at The Toy Association. “We invite all buyers — those who are already planning to visit permanent showrooms across LA and those who are looking for new options from numerous other sources — to join us at our Fall Preview building for the opportunity to network with more than 75 leading manufacturers all under one roof, in one convenient location.”

Once registered, attendees can begin making appointments with manufacturers including Hasbro, LEGO Systems, Crazy Aaron’s, Funko, Horizon Group USA, OOLY, Kids Preferred, and more. The appointment-making tool, designed to seamlessly create connections between companies and attendees, ensures that time at the building is maximized.

The calendar of meetings will seamlessly sync with the “LA Fall Preview” mobile app (available for download in August on the Apple Store and Google Play Store) so all appointments will be easily and accurately accessible in one place.

“Our LA Fall Preview is about business — and it’s about building relationships, sourcing new bestsellers, and nurturing creativity,” Carcone continued. “LA Previews happen all month long, but while you’re in town for the market week, make sure to fill your calendar with a variety of networking and fun. Register for our complimentary ‘come-one, come-all’ Industry Networking Party on September 10 at Otis College of Art and Design. And, don’t miss The Toy Foundation’s Party with a Purpose kick-off fundraiser dedicated to supporting children’s hospitals with the power of play taking place Monday, September 9 at TAO Los Angeles. Then, end your week at WiT’s Wonder Women Awards, taking place Friday, September 13 at The Beverly Hilton Hotel.”
