Christmas may be weeks away but people are already getting into the festive spirit.
And it wouldn't be an Irish Christmas without The Late Late Toy Show.
Details have slowly been emerging as to what we can expect from this year's show, so with that here's what we know so far about the beloved Christmas extravaganza .
What date is it on?
The Toy Show is set to air right at the end of the month on Friday, November 29.
When is it on and where can I watch it?
RTE One will be broadcasting the show live on Friday evening with the usual slot of 9.35pm.
Alternatively you can catch all the Toy Show action on the RTE player which will be live streaming on the night.
While the player is usually only available for viewers in the Republic of Ireland, last year people from all around the world were allowed to tune in on the big night.
How many people will be watching?
Each year the show attracts massive viewership figures and this year is likely to be no different.
Last year over 1.3 million people tuned into the Late Late Toy Show on the night, making it the most watched TV show in Ireland of the year.
What's this year's theme?
As per usual the theme of the Toy Show this year has been kept under lock and key and isn't expected to be revealed until much closer to the night.
However host Ryan dropped the first hint as to what viewers can expect in the upcoming show.
Speaking in Cork last month he said: “I am just buzzing for this year’s show. We are going big on Christmas.
“In past years I’ve been dressed as a lobster, Willy Wonka and a candle stick but this year’s costume is very peculiar. There is going to be plenty of mischief and magic.
“This year it’s not just about the toys, it’s all about generosity and kindness, which are the two touchstones in Ireland we want to highlight, especially with the current homeless crisis in the country.
Last year's theme took inspiration from the hit musical The Greatest Showman which saw Ryan give his best Hugh Jackman impression.
Other previous themes included the likes of The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Shrek.
Preparations for this year are well and truly underway with show runners on the hunt for talented youngsters to appear on the show.
Over 5,000 acts from all across Ireland have applied for the chance to appear on the show.
Earlier Tubridy said that he was left 'gobsmacked' after more than 100,000 people applied for tickets to be in the audience on the night.
