The Game Hall at NETS
NETS is an all-inclusive Toy, Gift, and Game Tradeshow.
The MassMutual space configuration made it very easy for NETS to feature a dedicated Game Hall. Retailers and their staff will enjoy extended time to see, learn and play the games that their consumers will be asking for in 2024. The Game Hall will be the first hall attendees will see when they enter the show.
Game Night enables any vendor to participate, even if they do not have a booth in the Game Hall. Temporary game tables will be set up in the common area in front of the halls and are available to vendors to rent for Game Night.
Retailers that attended the 2022 New England Game and Kit Day, requested an additional game and kit event in the Winter. The NETS show satisfies this request with three days of dedication to specialty game vendors.

The 2nd annual New England Game & Kit Day will be held September 7, 2023 at the same venue, MassMutual Convention Center in Springfield, MA. This is a totally separate one day event in September, not to be confused with the three-day NETS show in February 2024.
Separate Event Information
2023 Game & Kit Event, September 7, 2023
Games and Kits are arguably one of the most important categories in our toy industry. In 2022 the industry noted a void in the North East territory for a dedicated Game & Kit Day. ASTRA reached out to Alan & Christine Blumberg and they ran with it. In typical community fashion which we are known for, the other New England sales reps also embraced the idea and an in October 2022 an uber successful Game & Kit Day was held at this same venue, the MassMutual Center in Springfield, MA. Retailers, sales representatives and manufacturers emailed, called and texted afterwards asking for another Game & Kit Day. On September 7, 2023, the 2nd annual New England Game & Kit Day will happen at the MassMutual Convention Center in Springfield, Massachusetts.
