Inaugural Shanghai Toy Show 2018 (4.5 – 4.7)

Fresh off the success of last year’s debut Beijing Toy Show, show organizer Popmart is branching out with the brand-new Shanghai Toy Show. Featuring double the exhibition space of BTS, STS will be held at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center on April 5th through the 7th 2018.   While it’s still quite early information wise, we’ve heard informally that many of the big exhibitors from BTS will be back for STS.  While we wait for more information on vendors, artists and more, enjoy the sweet show promo by Kasing Lung, creator of the insanely popular Labubu figure.

Based on BTS’s strong exhibitor lineup and the rave reviews praising the show’s impressive organization, we’re expecting STS to be quite the show.  Pop Mart mentions in their press materials that they will carry over the high-level of service found at BTS to STS.  Apparently, staff were on-hand at each BTS booth to assist with lineup and purchasing.
