This convention celebrates and specializes in all things Broadway and if you’re a fan of the theatre then this is the kind of event that you want to participate in. For the last few years its been held at the New York Hilton Midtown but now as we come out of the pandemic, it would be held at the Manhattan Center and some parts of the nearby New Yorker Hotel.

Slowly but surely the world is returning to a somewhat normalized sense from the choking grip of the Coronavirus Pandemic and while some expos like the International Franchise Expo have decided to press forward and take place in-person, there were a number of cancellations that we’ve already lined out right here on “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken”. For those who’ve fallen behind I am speaking of the New York International Auto Show, The NY Luxury Design Fair and The Summer Fancy Food Show. The IFE would be my second time back in the Javits Center after an 18 month break in doing so when we hit the NY Now event.

Hello again my friends and welcome to what I am sure will be a fun read for you all. So we are once again celebrating the Toy Insider’s “Holiday Of Play” event and after three virtual happenings this one was back to being in-person and I was so excited about that. The pandemic made large gatherings like this difficult to do but many are slowly coming back and we will have New York Comic Con and Anime NYC returning after each bypassed a year.

For the past couple of years, The Toy Insider has held the “Holiday Of Play” at a venue called Current down in the Chelsea Piers. Its a smaller event space than the one used by their Sweet Suite and hence a more exclusive invite to get.

Hey there my friends I’m so happy to bring this bit of coolness to your desktops or even perhaps your mobile devices if that is how you are perusing the content here on “The Chronicles of Piercing Ken”. This post finds me returning to the Curve Expo for their Summer Showcase and while the last time I attended was at the Javits Center, this time around was at Spring Studios where they hold the Tribeca Film Festival.

Greetings my friends, its time to lend some overview opinion to our friends over at the Toy Insider. By now I am certain that you know about them since we’ve been hitting their events for about six years but based on the COVID-19 Pandemic, their amazing “Sweet Suite” will once again be done in the virtual sense. I’m going to present the same kind of exploration as I did with the 2020 “Sweet Suite” and its companion “Holiday of Play @ Home” so let’s examine the exhibitors that are present today.

The way I did this those past times was screen grab the exhibitor room and then offered up some opinion on it all and now without any further adieu here is the virtual “Main Floor”. This presentation was more fun that I initially expected and it was like being inside a video game.
