"Big Red Car Tour" is a tour that toured Australia in 1995 and early 1996. It is the first tour that features the original Big Red Car and it's seating arrangement. Magic Greg also appeared on this tour. The December 1995 concerts at the Seymour Centre were referred to as "The Wiggles Happy Holiday Show" at which songs from Wake Up Jeff! are known to have been performed. Some footage was shot for a short segment on the Australian lifestyle television show, Healthy, Wealthy and Wise, in November 1995.

• Anthony would switch from a green skivvy to a blue skivvy in the Happy Holiday Show.
