It’s all eye’s on Playtime New York & Kids Hub this weekend, Pirouette will be state side for all three days in the city that never sleeps.
February 11-13, 2024
Metropolitan Pavilion
It’s a different way of doing business, it’s old school. Brands can’t be precious about their collections here, the likely hood of the pieces being thrown on the floor to see how the selection works together is highly likely. But that’s a good sign, trust me!
It’s also worth pointing out the unique offering at the New York show from having both Playtime and Kid’s Hub under one roof. There’s an openness from buyers there to mix some of the premium brands up with more commercial price points, something that doesn’t happen so much in Europe.
We’re excited for the great talks put on at the show, like the Earnshaw’s panel. Last season the discussion about AI turned out to be very interesting. Brands and visitors alike should really take advantage of the conferences and attend the talks. The information you can gather from them can be really helpful.
Pirouette will be filming a number of interviews with French labels at the show plus chatting with brands buyers & more. Make sure to grab yourself a copy of the directory* print edition- Playtime NY & Kids Hub whilst at the show!
Pick up a directory* print edition at the show.
