The Wiggles LIVE in Concert Tsunami Relief Benefit Concert! was a benefit concert performed in March 2005 to aid victims of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake/tsunami. The concert took place at the Sydney Entertainment Centre and proceeds from the show were sent to the official Tsunami Relief Appeal.
Official Description[]
The Wiggles are set to perform one very special show at the Sydney Entertainment Centre on Thursday 10th March at 1pm.
The Wiggles were all deeply affected by this tragedy and wanted to contribute to Australia’s fantastic relief efforts the best way they know how – by entertaining families.
"So many parents lost their children and so many children lost their parents – it’s just incredibly sad." Greg Page
All proceeds from the performance will go to Tsunami Relief Appeal.
Tour Date[]
- March 10, 2005 - Sydney Entertainment Centre 1:00 pm (Tickets went sale on January 24, 2005)
Trivia[]
- This tour marked:
- One of the few Wiggles arena performances in Australia to not take place in December.
- The first tour where Wiggle Hula, Caveland (in Australia since the Wiggly Party: Live in Concert tour four years earlier) and Wiggle Bay and Dance A Cachuca are performed.
- The only time Wiggle Hula and Hula, Hula, Hula Nothing Could Be Cooler! are performed.
- The last concert to use ramps at the front of the stage for the Big Red Car and the Wiggly Dancers, From the Sailing Around the World tour to onward, the Big Red Car would enter through the sides of the stage, while the cast would enter the audience by staircases, this way, after the yellow Wiggle (Greg for this matter) parks the Big Red Car backstage, he would enter the stage right at the end of Toot Toot, Chugga Chugga, Big Red Car instead of a few minutes after the song and he would enter through the sides of the stage instead of through the arch with curtains.
- The last time when Another Cuppa is performed.
- The roses colored tunnel with an green curtain would later be used in Sailing Around the World Live!, LIVE Hot Potatoes! (2005-2006 tour), and The Dorothy the Dinosaur Show (in 2005 to 2006).
- This was performed after the LIVE Hot Potatoes! video to be released in Australia.
