The festive season just got a whole lot brighter, as the date for the 2024 Late Late Toy Show has officially been confirmed!

With the stage set to be transformed into a winter wonderland, who knows—a future star or two may be discovered right before our eyes!

It's not just about the toys and the laughs, though; it’s a major event for advertisers, with RTE looking to pull in a whopping €868,000 from various promotional packages for the show! Last year's show garnered substantial advertising revenues, proving once again that the Late Late Toy Show isn't just a holiday highlight—it's a monetary powerhouse for RTÉ. It seems everyone—those on stage and behind the scenes—is getting geared up for a spectacular showcase this year.

As the excitement builds up, Patrick Kielty is stepping into the role with charm and finesse, having kickstarted the new season with a lively show filled with surprises. With fans eagerly anticipating the Toy Show, it’s clear that this tradition holds a cherished place in the hearts of Irish families.

Fun fact: Did you know the Late Late Toy Show first aired in 1978? Since then, it has grown to become a staple of Irish culture during the festive season, attracting millions of viewers each year! Another interesting tidbit—last year’s edition featured over 150 different toys, showcasing the latest and greatest gifts all aimed at sparking joy in young hearts. Get ready, folks, as the countdown to the most magical night of the year has officially begun!
