The Wiggles are heading back to Newcastle for their biggest arena tour yet. The Wiggles’ Sparkle! BIG SHOW rolls into Newcastle Entertainment Centre on Saturday 7 November 2026, with three sessions across the day to suit nap times, school pick ups and everything in between.
If your little ones have worn out the Wiggles playlist on high rotation, this is shaping up to be one of the must-do family events on the Newcastle calendar this year.
What to Expect from The Wiggles’ Sparkle! BIG SHOW
This new national tour promises to be the group’s most dazzling live show to date, packed with larger-than-life performances, immersive visual effects and non-stop musical fun. Expect giant singalongs, glittering lighting displays and plenty of moments for kids to get up and dance in the aisles.
On stage you’ll find the full Wiggly line up, Anthony and Lucia (Blue Wiggles), Tsehay and Evie (Yellow Wiggles), Simon and Caterina (Red Wiggles), and Lachy and John (Purple Wiggles), joined by fan favourites Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog, Henry the Octopus, Captain Feathersword and the viral favourite the Tree of Wisdom.
Expect a mix of classic singalong hits alongside newer favourites, all wrapped up in a full arena production built for young fans and the grown ups who grew up with them too.

Date: Saturday 7 November 2026
Venue: Newcastle Entertainment Centre, Broadmeadow
Sessions: 10am, 1:30pm and 4:30pm
Three sessions in one day gives families more flexibility than past tours, so it’s worth thinking about nap schedules and traffic before you pick a time. The mid-afternoon 1:30pm slot tends to suit toddlers who are up from their morning sleep but not yet heading into meltdown territory before dinner.

Family Tips for The Wiggles at Newcastle Entertainment Centre
Newcastle Entertainment Centre is an indoor arena, so weather isn’t a factor, but a few practical things are worth knowing before you go.
Prams can usually be parked in a designated area near the entrance rather than taken to your seat, so pack light if you’re bringing a little one who’ll want to be carried or held for parts of the show.
Sessions typically run just over an hour, which is a good length for toddlers and preschoolers without pushing bedtime or nap routines too far off track.
If you’re after seated tickets with a clear view for smaller kids, book earlier rather than later. Popular sessions like the 10am slot tend to sell out first with local families.
