- The last USA Tour to have the Big Red Car, and the only tour to use the current model of it.
- The first and only time when The Wiggles performed in
- At the Glasgow Concert Hall show, the band performed Hot Poppin' Popcorn because a fan who had cancer requested the song to be played as it was his favourite song. This was also the song where Greg was away at the time, so this was Greg's first and only time he did Hot Poppin' Popcorn.
- Lachlan Gillespie filled in for Paul Paddick from beginning in New Zealand shows.
- The Flora Door in this tour would later be used in Apples & Bananas Tour.

- Caveland was briefly performed on this tour.[2]
- The Tulsa OK shows were brought up in 2020 when somebody on Twitter pointed out that The Wiggles performed at the same venue as a recent, then US president, Donald Trump rally where not as many people showed up.
- The Sacramento, CA Community Center Theater show was performed until the same day as The Wiggles' Big Birthday! video and album were released in America.
- The Birmingham Alexandra Theatre show was performed until the same day as the Spanish Dub of The Wiggles Go Bananas! DVD was released in Argentina.
