Yo Gabba Gabba Heads Out to 60 Cities on Upcoming Tour
After selling out their debut tour and making a special guest appearance at the 2010 Coachella festival, the cast of “Yo Gabba Gabba!”, the highly acclaimed kids’ program, will be hitting the road with their show. For almost four months on the road, DJ Lance Rock and the life-sized characters from “Yo Gabba Gabba!” will perform live shows called “There’s A Party In My City!” along with special celebrity guests.
Sixty cities across North America will be visited by the Gabba Gang, starting in Bethel, NY on August 27 at the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts. The outing will take place over a span of 15 weeks, wrapping up in Frisco, TX at Dr. Pepper Arena on December 12.
Several of the markets in the U.S. on the tour’s itinerary will be hosting extended stays for the Gabba Gang. Runs of two nights are scheduled for Boston, MA at Wang Theatre on September 25-26; New York City, NY at Radio City Music Hall on October 2-3; in Chicago IL at Chicago Theatre on October 9-10; in San Francisco, CA at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium on November 20-21; in Los Angeles, CA at Nokia Theatre on November 26-27; and in Phoenix, AZ at Dodge Theatre on December 4-5.
