We’re so excited to announce our latest partnership and first ever artist collaboration, Toca Boca X Conan Gray! "Conan Gray connects effortlessly with a young generation through his music and social channels, which is one of the many reasons why we’re so excited to welcome him into Toca Boca World,” says Alexandra Svärdh, Senior Brand Manager at Toca Boca. “He is a true role model for self-expression, a core value that Toca Boca as a brand has always stood for. With this collaboration, we hope to instill a powerful message that it’s okay to be different and that it’s okay to be yourself.” Toca Boca World players will unlock nine iconic Conan Gray styles, as well as a music player loaded with some of his biggest hits – empowering them to tell their own stories using the artist's music and outfits, reflecting Conan's style, both on and off stage. Conan worked closely with us to develop, co-design, and curate the collaboration, viewing it as an opportunity to connect with fans in new, exciting ways. “It’s so special to be the first artist in Toca Boca World. The little Conan characters, which embody different versions of myself as a person and artist, are so cute to watch perform on the stage and interact with the world,” says Conan Gray. “I had so much fun making the outfits, hairstyles, and accessories — I hope everybody enjoys their miniature Conan!” The time-limited collaboration kicks off on June 14th with an in-game gift event where players can claim a free gift every day leading up to the official launch on June 18th, and it will end on August 13th. Any questions? Let us know! Till then, you can watch the trailer now on our Youtube channel: https://lnkd.in/efRjEAVn

We’re sure you already know this, but there’s really no party like a Toca Boca party. Which party are we talking about THIS time? Our summer party, of course! A couple of weeks back, we headed out to celebrate summer the best way we know how… by playing & getting messy! Coinciding with the release of our Creative Workshop Furniture Pack that same week, we got into the creative spirit! We split into groups and got to flex our creative muscles with graffiti and pottery making. A huge thanks to GraffitiSthlm and to Emelie von Sydow from Erstagatans Keramikverkstad – we had so much fun! We even got to make our own decorations to accessorize the venue, so we got busy making garlands and arranging flowers. We then got to enjoy our creations with some wonderful food and drinks. Follow us for more #LifeAtTocaBoca! What would you like to see more of? And to our Toca Boca employees: what was your favorite part of the party?
