Barney's Musical Castle is a live stage show tour based off the television series Barney and Friends, which originally toured North America from 1999 until 2001. It was later performed in Asia in 2005, moving to the Middle East in 2006, Chile in 2006, and San Juan, Puerto Rico in 2007. A filmed performance of this show was filmed at the Rosemont Theatre in Chicago, IL in later released on home video on March 6, 2001.
In an effort to promote and introduce The Wiggles to an American audience, The Wiggles and Captain Feathersword performed at select shows of the original North American run from 2000 to 2001, as an intermission act.
In addition, the home video release of the show featured the group through the concert portion of Wiggle Time! after the main feature.
The confetti from this tour was later used in The Wiggles' version of the Irish and Scottish folk song Marie's Wedding for their Hoop Dee Doo It's a Wiggly Party video.

Trivia[]
- In one of the shows at Charlotte, North Carolina, Murray was absent and unlike most Wiggles tours when an understudy would take over, no understudy would fill in for this case. This would later be the case for Evie when she is absent from some shows of a certain tour due to commitments with the Australian Ballet.
