## Trivia

* The Big Red Car appeared on stage sporadically from the Sapphire Bay show onwards, but it has only been used in Sapphire Bay so far.
* The Sapphire Bay show was the second time that the band’s signature anthem track “Toot Toot, Chugga Chugga, Big Red Car” was performed at the end of the concert before the confetti falls down and playing the “Let’s Have a Party (instrumental)” goodbye exit stage walkoff music instead of always being the opening number. The first being the Pop Go The Wiggles! Tour in 2007.
* For the Perth, Melbourne & Dreamworld shows, Sinatra wore the short sleeved skivvy seen during the 2000s due to the arenas being especially hot. This marks the first the 1997 short sleeved skivvy's been seen since before Janelle's first retirement in 2006.
* Mitchell wore his sparkle skivvy in the Melbourne shows. This is the second show a song has been played for a second time in the same show, Wake Up & Dance Tour was Nya Nya Nya and now Baby Shark for the **Wiggly Big Day Out Tour!**.
* In The Perth Shows Hot Tamale was and the end of Hot Potato because of the Documentary.
