The Canadian Toy Collector's Society, with great pleasure, invites you to have a table or booth in our 36th annual "Canada's Greatest Collector's Toy Show". Being the longest running and best established toy show and sale in Canada we have continually set the standard. Our show management team includes people with credentials and experience in the area of marketing, a very important ingredient when doing advertising and publicity. Last year our attendance neared 2,000 patrons.

What is it that brought those patrons to our 2007 show?



the warm, friendly atmosphere

the CTCS website providing instant answers to Show questions

the extra long setup time of 6 hours Saturday & 2 hours Sunday

a mass mail-out of $1.00 off admission postcards or on-line reduced admission passes

excellent electronic security overnight

a steady buyer lineup entering the hall

the ability to buy and sell Friday night at the CTCS swap-meet/social

we invite you to compare table and booth prices. We have the lowest prices for a major Canadian Show

the diverse selection of toys at over 300 tables & booths
the bright lighting making examining purchases easier

the CTCS club display of antique toys
our special edition "Brooklin Show Model"
the ample free parking in the lot and on Skyway Drive
the extensive print and media advertising
the low customer admission price
the fact that the TTC stops right at our door
our international flyer distribution
the in house snack and luncheon bar
our wide, uncrowded aisles
the friendly atmosphere of a "club-run" Toy Show


Indeed, all these features helped bring out the crowds. Dealers appreciated the six hour Saturday set-up time, the free coffee and donuts, the 3:00 pm closing time on Sunday, and the "One-Stop Parking" for both the Show Hall and nearby hotels.

This luxurious facility features excellent lighting, ample free parking and impressive cafeteria and lounge facilities unequalled by any other toy show in Canada. Situated at the southwest corner of Hwy. 27 and Dixon Road there is easy access from all major highways and it is just minutes away from Toronto's Pearson International Airport. The show venue is also within minutes of the Best Western 'Carlton Place' Airport Hotel, the Marriott (Toronto Airport) Hotel, the Constellation Hotel, the Holiday Inn (Airport), and the Bristol Place Hotel.

Our traditional Friday night swap-meet/social will take place on October 17th, at the Burnhamthorpe Collegiate, 500 The East Mall, Etobicoke, Ontario. (facility is located on the west side of the East Mall, one block north of Burnhamthorpe Rd).
