Toy Fair drinks meet-up returns

Event hosted by Progressive Preschool Magazine and Aardvark Swift is on Monday January 25.

The informal drinks and networking party hosted by The Source’s sister title, Progressive Preschool Magazine, and industry recruiters Aardvark Swift – is back for the fifth year running at this year’s London Toy Fair.

This year’s event will take place on Monday January 25, upstairs at The Hand and Flower which (for those who don’t know) is handily situated just across the road from Olympia.

Rob Willis, publisher at Progressive Preschool, said: “We’re only too pleased to once again offer hard working exhibitors and buyers a chance to have a drink on us, and unwind for a few hours after what will no doubt be another busy day at Toy Fair. We’re looking forward to welcoming everybody there.”

To attend, all you need to do is register your interest for tickets by emailing event@max-publishing.co.uk. Space is limited, however, so don’t delay. Drinks vouchers will then be available for collection from the Aardvark Swift stand, number GH10.

Ian Goodall, managing director at Aardvark Swift, commented: “As a specialist recruiter to the fantastic toy and licensing trades, it’s a pleasure to be able to offer something by return to the great candidates and companies that I work with.

“We know how hard these shows are, so the least we can do is give everyone a drink and some relaxation for a few hours. My team and I are looking forward to seeing everyone there.”

Here’s to a great London Toy Fair for all!
