Thailand Toy Expo 2019 (May 2nd to 5th) @ CentralWorld, Bangkok
Since its launch in 2013, the annual THAILAND TOY EXPO has secured it's importance in the landscape of designer toys, being one of THE venues to showcase at in the Asian region, IMHO. And while I have not attended any of the past shows, the fact that near everyone speaks to me about the show, and encourages me to go, is a decent "sign" in my book :)
This year's event lasts from Thursday May 2nd thru to Sunday May 5th, 2019, in what might be the ONLY handful of international events ("toy-focused" or otherwise :p) which lasts four days.
As well entrance to the event is FREE, as it is housed in CentralWorld (the sixth largest shopping complex in the world), and apart of the surrounding environment, versus being regulated in a convention hall, IMHO.
Exhibitors and vendors are hosted in a variety of "zones", viewable in the Layout and Directory featured above. I have attempted to feature as much as I possibly can, but undoubtably missing out on TONS!
