Joe's LIVE Concert VenueQuestions people ask
5 answeredThe 2026 event starts November 5.
The 2026 event takes place at Joe's LIVE Concert Venue.
The organizer lists toy and game inventors and designers, product acquisition executives, innovators, marketers, entrepreneurs, and newcomers among its audiences.
It is most useful for toy and game inventors who want to put a prototype or idea in front of buyers, since speakers include merchandising executives from Marvel Entertainment and The Walt Disney Company, and Exploding Kittens co-founders, and the event includes a pitch element with feedback. Established toy companies looking mainly for trade networking may get less from it, as the audience also includes families, young inventor entrants and newcomers.
Attendees at toy and game industry events usually dress in smart casual, with inventors pitching often in a neat collared shirt or blazer, while fans and creatives add playful or themed pieces. The concert-venue setting suggests comfortable shoes for a long evening on foot.
