WATCH: The brand-new Late Late Toy Show trailer has just landed!

This year’s 60-second trailer will get its first TV spot tonight during the Six One News on RTÉ One.

The Late Late Toy Show official trailer has finally arrived!

Every year, there’s much speculation over The Late Late Toy Show theme, with the guessing game starting weeks in advance. People just can’t wait to find out what it is – none more so than presenter Patrick Kielty!

In the trailer, viewers will be transported deep down underground to The Late Late Show Toy Show Lab, where Patrick is surrounded by his top team of junior scientists, who are busy experimenting and concocting the perfect formula for the best Late Late Toy Show theme yet.

The whizzkids promise Patrick extra magic and extra “OMG” as they bring him on a whirlwind journey through their colourful lab as he discovers this year’s theme.

Can you guess what it is yet? The countdown is on - all will be revealed this day in three weeks’ time!

This year’s Late Late Toy Show will once again bring people and families across the country together for one of the biggest television and cultural events of the year.

Also returning this year is The RTÉ Toy Show Appeal, which to date has raised over €31 million since it began in 2020. Viewers can donate throughout the night via Revolut, and online at rte.ie/toyshowappeal.

Grab yourself a hot chocolate and have your favourite cosy pyjamas at the ready, because this year’s Late Late Toy Show is on the way - “Can’t Wait!”
