FAO Schwarz popup in Toronto

The toy store many know from the movie BIG with Tom Hanks is making an appearance back in Hudson's Bay and they brought a big piano you have to dance on to play. The FAO Schwarz popup is on the main floor of the downtown department store, surrounded by a representation of a piano keyboard.

Along with the toys you can find Santa himself seated on a fine red chair ready to meet children and listen to their gift requests. You can wander the area looking at plush animals and toy train sets.

“At Hudson’s Bay we are always looking for ways to offer our customers new, exciting and exclusive opportunities and experiences”, says Alison Coville, President, Hudson’s Bay. “There is something special and nostalgic about shopping for a perfect toy to bring joy to someone you love. We are thrilled to launch the FAO Schwarz brand in Canada and bring that sense of magic and wonder to our customers”.

Hudson's Bay began to sell toys again starting in the fall of 2016 and in 2018 they teamed with the world-famous FAO Schwarz, described to bring the popup into Canada for the first time. The toy store was founded in 1862 by Frederick August Otto Schwarz whop opened an emporium with one-of-a-kind toys from around the globe.
