Master class: The return of the Toymaster May Show

As the show once again opens its doors at The Majestic Hotel in Harrogate this week, PreschoolNews catches up with just some of the suppliers which will be in attendance.

The last time that the toy trade headed to Harrogate for the Toymaster May Show it was 2019 and the world was a significantly different place.

Fast forward to 2022, and the buying group is ready to once again throw open the doors of The Majestic Hotel and welcome independent retailers and suppliers to network, take orders, get a read on current trends and catch up with their peers.

For an event as much-loved as the May Show is, its enforced absence has been felt keenly and people are understandably delighted to get back to business, underlined by the fact that all space was sold by mid January.

“[The show is] a fantastic way for us to connect with our friends in the independent trade, get their feedback on ranges, catch up on what’s been going on and do some great business together in a lovely setting,” David Mordecai, ceo of One for Fun tells us.
