I went last year and my son LOVED it and he was 1 at the time.
It is really worth going, I thought they put on a great show. I assume the Hot Potato seats are at the front of the stage so might try to get those this year. Go The Wiggles!!! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

They're kind of like the U2 of the baby world eh? Just one of those "must see" concerts!
Do you think 18 months is too young to enjoy it? |

For anyone thinking about it - I have one word...
GO! It was absolutely awesome but I swear I enjoyed it more than Charlotte. Take some cash though for the merchandise - its all very cool but quite expensive... ------------- http://lilypie.com">

i think it depends on the child...E has loved them forever but at 18 months wouldnt have been able to sit through a concert without trying to run off:) he will love it this time..pity it's Gran's bday..and I was like...oh cool DH can take him but i wanna see how excited he is..lol.. just not sure i wanna leave a 6 week old even for a few hours!!
so they are on sale now? even though the go on sale dec 7th? ------------- Mum to two amazing boys! |

I went with my sisters kids to the last one and it was fantastic! A little chaotic but so worth it :) I actually really enjoyed it myself. Tastic kids under 12 are free if they sit on your knee most of the kids end up dancing in the isles anyway lol.
I'm so taking the girls this time they will be the perfect age! -------------

We will most definitley be going again. I took Sam this year and she LOVED it - I don't think I will ever forget the look on her face when she realised that Dorothy was real
Yes the tickets are quite expensive but you won't regret spending the money - definitley well worth the show (and sadly the eye candy for Moms isn't terrible either ).
I will say that I'm not sure what the difference in price for the tickets is though - we paid for the Hot Potato seats last time and were no where near the stage. All the seats at the Vectra Arena location are fine though anyway - they did a quarter stage set up last time which meant where ever you sat you could see everything really well. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

E would never sit on my knee the whole time,.....
my friend is talking to ticketik who wont confirm anything till 4th(preferred) and 7th for others and reckons the guy said they would be unlikely to do it easter weekend.. and hes had a lot of pissed off people on the phone..lol and then he says tickets will be limited after presales and radio and newspaper promos..so when anyone knows for sure about south island (this is south i am talking about) please let me know.!!! I need tickets:)! ------------- Mum to two amazing boys! |

KA you can always take Liam in a sling/carrier with you if you wanted to go I'm sure E will still like the wiggles in april! It seems to be something kids either love or they don't.
DH is taking Harry cos I'll have a very newborn baby boy. He's gonna love it! ------------- Mama to DS1 (5 years), DS2 (3 years) and... http://alterna-tickers.com" rel="nofollow">

oh, maybe its a chrome thing. I will try again with IE.
Ticketek has it on their site but nothing for ticket direct down here |

If you have a Visa Card and your tickets can be brought through Ticketek, you can purchase tickets now.
Hot Potatoe seats have a premium of $10.00 though. Have brought mine for my daughter and myself - thought it better to pay the premuim rather than miss out

I haven't posted on here in a while but I thought I would give you guys first opportunity... I have 6 tickets in the 5th row back from the stage for the Auckland show, Sunday March 28th at 10am. My friend also bought us tickets at the same time and hers are a couple of rows closer. I just want back what I paid for them, so please PM me if you are interested Thanks!

Hi Lisa,
Since you are in Aucland the the agent selling the Wiggles tickets is Ticketmaster http://www.ticketmaster.co.nz/The-Wiggles-tickets/artist/705291 You will have to be a member to get the presale tickets and then have the special codeword that they email to you. I am not sure if you are too late to get the code word by email but you could try ringing them directly and I am sure that they will give you it |
