Get on Board the ASTRA Toy Boat

There are so many great reasons to join us on the upcoming Royal Carribean’s Liberty of the Seas Toy Boat for a totally new experience!

What can the Toy Boat offer that isn’t available at other shows? • Time to meet with vendors in a relaxed environment and work together on programs for the full year. • Time to build your relationships with vendors, with reps, with your retailers. • Time to refresh and energize after a crazy 4th quarter and working the January gift shows. • Time to play. We all need this! • Entirely tax deductible • For RETAILERS: It’s a great time to prepare for Toy Fest. If you go to both the Toy Boat and Toy Fest, you will get one free night hotel in Columbus for ASTRA’s 2023 Marketplace & Academy, and one free night hotel for Toy Fest!

Plus Game Night and family-style toy sync battle.

WINNER!

It’s also an opportunity for retailers to really work with vendors and reps to set the course for 2023. There will be other retailers on the ship with whom you can network to share experiences and get new ideas from. People from Learning Express, The Good Toy Group and Toy Collection will be on board and conference room space is available for all during the cruise for meetings, gatherings or just networking.

• REPS: Book a table to work with retailers on the lines you represent.

• MANUFACTURERS: Book a table and even rent some conference room space for meeting with retailers to establish 2023 programs. Sign up for Game Nights – as one fee covers two nights. One for the ASTRA block of cruisers and one that is open to the public!

The Toy Boat cruise departs from Fort Lauderdale on February 20 and returns on February 24, 2023.
