Ticket lottery opens for the Late Late Toy Show | BreakingNews.ie

RTÉ has opened applications for golden tickets for the Late Late Toy Show on December 6th.

RTÉ is calling on “big kids” across the country to apply, but it warned demand far exceeds the number of seats available.

As part of the application, you’ll be asked to share your favourite Christmas song and applicants are reminded that these golden tickets are non-transferable.

Patrick Kielty has said: ‘It’s that special time of the year where I become weirdly popular with family, friends and complete strangers. And yet they all just want to ask me the same question “Any chance of an aul ticket for the Toy Show?”

“Well sadly I don’t have any and can’t get any BUT here’s how you could be joining me for the biggest night of the year on December 6th. Remember, Toy Show dreams do come true but you gotta be in it to win in. So be quick. And be lucky!’”

Successful applicants will be contacted the week before the Toy Show.

The show saw a record 550,000 streams on RTÉ Player, with viewers spanning 147 countries, while also raising €3.6 million for the Toy Show Appeal, a fund to help several children’s charities and causes.
