We now have the first details about the return of the annual Irish TV favourite.
Following the return of the Late Late Show this week, RTÉ has confirmed the air date for this year’s Toy Show.
Viewers are used to watching the Toy Show in November, but for this year, RTÉ has confirmed that it will air on Friday, December 6.
Some audience members may be disappointed to hear that the show is airing at a later date this winter, but having it air closer to Christmas is a great move in our eyes.
In December, we’ll see chaos erupt on the Late Late set as kids from around the country and Patrick Kielty spread the festive spirit.
There will be emotional reunions, malfunctioning toys, a questionable musical number or two and something for everyone in the audience.
RTÉ has now opened applications for children to be part of the biggest show on Irish TV.
An RTÉ spokesperson stated:
“The countdown to the most wonderful night of the year has just begun. This year it will be on Friday, December 6th so save the date!
“The Late Late Toy Show 2024 will be as magical as ever and we want you to be part of it. We’re looking for kids from all corners of the island so let us know what’s special about you.
“Whether you want to demonstrate a toy or be part of a performance complete the application form below, we can’t wait to hear from you.”
The deadline for applications is Wednesday, October 2.
Are we too old to be counting down the days? Definitely, but we all know the Toy Show only gets better as you grow up and embrace its madness.
The Late Late Toy Show airs on Friday, December 6 on RTÉ 1.
