WONDER WOMEN AWARDS 2021 ANNOUNCEMENT
Due to uncertainty related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. we have postponed the 2021 Women Awards entirely, and instead, we’re planning it for February 20, 2022 in New York City, with the goal of hosting a safe and in-person event during Toy Fair New York. The Wonder Women Awards is renowned for its warmth, intimacy and special moments. We feel confident we’ll be able to maintain these key elements in this updated timeframe, and for the health and well being of our nominees, honorees and guests, as we recreate the event we’ve all come to know and love.
From now through September 1, 2021, anyone may nominate a colleague, friend, themselves, or any woman who has made an impact in toys, licensing or entertainment. Nominees who were submitted in 2021 will be carried over for the 2022 event. Nominations are now open, and the deadline to nominate has been extended through September 1, 2021.
