Licensing shows in our catalog
Our licensing coverage currently centers on two events on opposite sides of the world: the Australian Toy Hobby & Licensing Fair, next listed in Melbourne for February, and Brand Licensing Europe, next listed in London for October.
The two aren't quite the same animal — one pairs licensing with the broader toy and hobby trade, the other is built specifically around brand licensing deals and representation. If you're deciding which fits, think about whether you're sourcing licensed product alongside general toy and hobby buying, or negotiating brand rights specifically; that distinction matters more here than which one is bigger. Check each show's page for current dates before booking travel, since this is a thin category and we'd rather send you to the primary listing than guess at a season pattern from two data points.
