LET’S PARTY!

This year marks The Toy Insider’s 16th annual Sweet Suite event, and we are celebrating our Sweet 16 with more pizazz than ever before. Our lucky guests can expect a fun-filled evening of sparkle while previewing the hottest toys of the year, enjoying creative photo opps, and more at this legendary toy party.

Sweet Suite is a media event designed for press and digital creators. At Sweet Suite ’25, guests will get up close and personal with the coolest new toys, collectibles, video games, and more from more than 65 companies. This party is all about fun, and it’s full of interactive experiences like photo opps, contests, games, and so much more. Guests will enjoy delicious food and cocktails all while getting a first look at new product reveals and sharing the fun with their followers.

WHY SWEET SUITE?

Sweet Suite is not a trade show — it’s a huge party! Throughout the event, influencers and press will see the hottest toys of the year for the first time before they are unveiled anywhere else. Our event is unparalleled and offers attendees a memorable evening, from decadent food and drinks to one-of-a-kind experiences that The Toy Insider team brings from imagination to reality.

WHAT’S IN STORE?

Sweet Suite is all about having fun, acting like a kid again, and experiencing all of the hottest new toys and games first-hand. There will be dozens of hands-on activations, filmable moments, and of course, more toys than you can count! If you are a reporter, editor, producer, or influencer who covers toys, then this is an event you CANNOT miss!
