Don’t Forget: TOTY Nominations Due Sept. 20

September 6, 2018 | There are just two weeks left to nominate toys, games, and licensed properties for the Toy of the Year (TOTY) Awards. The deadline for submissions is Thursday, September 20 at 5 p.m. (Eastern).

Companies may nominate products in one of 17 categories including Creative Toy of the Year, Collectible of the Year, and Tech Toy of the Year.

TOTY finalists will be revealed the week of November 12. At that time, voting will open for retailers, media, Toy Association members, and consumers at ToyAwards.org through January 6, 2019.

One winner in each category, as well as the “People’s Choice” award (based solely on consumer votes) and the prestigious overall “Toy of the Year” winner (chosen by a panel of experts), will be announced at the TOTY Awards ceremony on Friday, February 15, 2019 at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in New York City.

Administered by The Toy Association, the awards program supports the philanthropic work of The Toy Foundation, which delivers new toys to children in need. For the full list of TOTY categories and for more information, visit TOTYAwards.org or email toty@toyassociation.org.
