WIT’s Wonder Women Awards 2021 to take place in LA during Fall Toy Previews
Women in Toys’ 2021 Wonder Women Awards will take place in LA in late September 2021, during the Fall Toy Preview window.
‘We believe this timing gives us the best chance for an in-person, newly inspired Diamond Anniversary Wonder Women Celebration,” read a statement from WIT.
‘It will be amazing to finally be together with all of you!’
2021 Wonder Women nominations will begin in early 2021.
The Awards usually takes place in New York during New York Toy Fair, but due to Covid restrictions, for 2021 that show will be staged in May instead of its usual spot in February.
