The Toy Association™ hosted its 2026 DC Fly-In and Annual Day of Play on Capitol Hill from June 9 to 11, 2026, bringing the toy industry’s voice and the power of play back to Washington, DC.

The events brought Toy Association members together with lawmakers and congressional staff to elevate the importance of play, highlight the U.S. toy industry’s economic and cultural impact, and engage directly on key policy priorities. The Annual Day of Play on Capitol Hill coincided with the United Nations’ International Day of Play, aligning the industry’s advocacy efforts with a global celebration of play.
