75th anniversary: The countdown has begun!

There are only 75 days to go until the 75th Spielwarenmesse!

On 13 November 2025, exactly 75 days before the start of the fair, the countdown to this special anniversary will begin. In 2026, Spielwarenmesse will bring the global toy community together in Nürnberg for the 75th time.

Stories, facts and background reports on the past, present and future of the Spielwarenmesse will be published daily on Instagram, LinkedIn and in the online magazine 'Spirit of Play'. What began in 1950 as the 'German Toy Fair' now brings the entire toy industry together in Nürnberg every year. 

At the same time, exhibitors and visitors are invited to share their personal stories, with the exception of 2021 and 2022 when the fair could not take place on site due to the pandemic.
