Cumulus and Salvation Army Set December 8 Date for 19th Annual Toy Field

Nashville residents will drop off new toys at Nissan Stadium on Tuesday, December 8, for the 19th Annual Toy Field event.

Cumulus Media Nashville and The Salvation Army Nashville Area Command announced the partnership on November 5, 2026. The collection aims to provide gifts for area children and families in need during the holiday season.

Major Stephanie Mockabee, Area Commander for The Salvation Army Nashville Area Command, stated that Toy Field ensures no child is forgotten at Christmas. She explained that Angel Tree gifts are sometimes not returned or that children’s needs are discovered at the last minute. The toys collected through Toy Field help the Forgotten Angel program fill those gaps. This allows the team to ensure every child they serve has gifts waiting for them on Christmas morning. Mockabee described the event as an example of the community coming together to make sure every child feels seen, remembered, and cared for.

Allison Warren, Vice President of Cumulus Media Nashville, said many kids in the community will not have the same holiday experience unless someone steps in to help. She noted that the event ensures every child gets a moment of joy, surprise, and wonder. Warren added that Cumulus listeners, partners, and neighbors continue to support The Salvation Army’s Forgotten Angel program each year. She said seeing Nissan Stadium filled with toys is a reminder that a community coming together can lead to extraordinary things.

The collection will take place in the South End Zone Plaza at 1 Titans Way, Nashville. The event runs from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on December 8. Donors can make curbside donations of new toys in Lot K on the southern side of the stadium, off Victory Lane, during those hours.

The program serves children of all ages. Residents are invited to donate new toys to help fulfill the dreams of local children. Rich Pharris, Promotions Director at Cumulus Nashville, can be reached at (615) 312-3490 or Rich.Pharris@cumulus.com for more information.
