It’s worth a shot!

Without a doubt, being an audience member of the Late Late Toy Show is easily the hottest ticket in town this winter.

As well witnessing the magic of the annual staple, you’re kind of guaranteed to walk away with some enviable goodies, every time Ryan Tubridy calls out those famous words – “There’s one for everyone in the audience!”

Indeed, tickets are not super easy to come by, but if you do want in on the event, then here’s how to apply.

You’ll need to head on over to RTÉ’s official website where you’ll be asked to fill out the form. The form collects your basic contact details, but it also asks a number of questions, and here is your chance to shine.

Firstly, you’ll have to explain why you want to swing by the studio for the event. Next, you’ll have to share how you and your family prepare for Christmas at home, as well as any hobbies or passions you have.

Applicants also have a chance to share any funny, interesting or extraordinary stories they have. You’ll also be asked to share your own Toy Show experience. Do you watch it with anyone living abroad? Did you grow up with it, or is it something that was introduced to you later in life?

Next, you’re asked to share your one Christmas wish you have for this year.

If you’re up for some audience interaction on the night, you’ll need to make that clear and explain why you’re game. You will also be asked to consider what your party piece would be if someone asked.

Finally, if there’s a special event you’d like to celebrate on the night, you’ll need to provide details of that.

To access the full application form, head to the website right here.

This year’s Late Late Toy Show airs on Friday 25 November.
