The return of retro for PG Live

Danilo brings some blasts from the past and rockets them into the 21st century…

This year, Danilo is seeing the return of retro, as popular brands from the past such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Barbie and Super Mario all have new movies releasing in 2023. To celebrate, Danilo will not only be launching new official ranges for these brands at PG Live, but they will also be bringing along special guests - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Leo and Donnie - to meet and greet people on Tuesday June 6.

Danilo is looking forward to showcasing all of its exciting greeting card and gift wrap ranges at the show, including a variety of popular designs, from children’s brands such as Gabby’s Dollhouse and Monster High and those celebrating up-andcoming anniversaries including Paw Patrol, Doctor Who and Peppa Pig. Plus, there will be new looks across Danilo’s offering on anime and football club designs. So pop along to the Danilo team (as well as their extra special guests) on stand 513 to see all this - plus they may have a few other sweet surprises to see…

Kids

Preschool and young kids still remain strong categories for greeting cards, and Danilo is delighted to welcome new brands such as Gabby’s Dollhouse, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Barbie, Hot Wheels, Squishmallows, Dinosaur Roar, Super Mario and more. Monster High will also be returning to the Danilo portfolio, with the new movie coming to screens in October this year. Aimed at kids aged six to 10, these new card and gift wrap designs will be based on the classic animated look. Following the huge success of the Brightside range, Danilo is excited to add ‘The World of Rachel Bright & Jim Field’ to the juvenile greetings card domain. These internationally bestselling, multi-award-winning stories, aimed at ages two to seven, help kids grow, laugh and learn together. Danilo will be adapting the book series including beloved titles such as The Lion Inside and The Koala Who Could into sweet and colourful greetings cards. Plus you will see updated designs for popular brands such as Bluey, Peppa Pig, PAW Patrol, Minions, L.O.L. Surprise! Hey Duggee, Elmer the Patchwork Elephant, Paddington and many more.

Football

2023 is another big year for football as the Women’s World Cup takes place over the summer. As women’s football and sport continue to grow in popularity, Danilo is proud to publish again for this year the official card and calendar range for the England Lionesses. Fingers crossed they can build on their amazing success from the UEFA Women’s Championship in 2022. As well as national teams, Danilo also publishes the official greetings card, calendar and diary ranges for all the Premier League teams with new refreshed designs being launched for key clubs such as Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, Man United, Tottenham Hotspur and more.

Adults

Anime

Danilo will be introducing further new designs within its Anime offering this year. With the anime genre rapidly growing over the past few years, there is an increasing demand from fans for products featuring their favourite brands and characters. All of these new card ranges will reflect the striking and individual imagery from each series, incorporating the most renowned characters into the designs.

There is a great selection at the show for adult-based ranges too, including the likes of Bridgerton, with the spin-off show Queen Charlotte just released, as well as popular staples from the likes of Stranger Things, Peaky Blinders, Mr Men & Little Miss, Mrs Brown’s Boys, Dad’s Army and Wallace and Gromit. Peanuts is a new addition for this year, focusing on the central loveable character of Snoopy, as a colourful new greetings card range aimed at both kids and adults.

Museums & Galleries

A growing awareness of global ecological issues has inspired a cultural resurgence in oceanic imagery, and this is fully evidenced across M&G’s diverse fine art and design collections, given both heritage and contemporary expression in a variety of both bold and unusual ways. M&G’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year range of cards features prize-winning photography of our most iconic and endangered sealife - from beautiful turtles to surfing dolphins and majestic whales. Colourful Clownfish are a distinctly modern cultural reference to ‘Finding Nemo’.
