Join the Band at Blippi’s Live Tour Coming to Walton Arts Center

Walton Arts Center is excited to present Blippi: Join the Band Tour, a new production featuring live musicians that promises to bring the vivacious, energetic and educational antics of global sensation Blippi to the stage.

Blippi will be joined by Meekah, both played by professional stage performers selected specifically for the tour, along with other singing and dancing buddies. They’ll explore what it takes to make music, including sounds, rhythms and instruments, featuring fan-favorite Blippi hits. So, grab your drumsticks, tune up your guitar and move those feet – this musical performance is fun for the whole family!

“We are turning it up to 11 with the Blippi: Join the Band Tour this fall,” said Stephen Shaw, founder and co-president of Round Room Live. “Blippi is a rockstar for today’s kids and has been delighting millions of children and families all over the world. A brand-new show that amps up the excitement to an even higher volume with a live band on stage was the next logical step in continuing Blippi touring around the world."

"Following the success of previous tours, Blippi: Join the Band Tour will bring families to their feet across the country to dance and sing along to their favorite Blippi hits as well as some brand-new songs.” Susan Vargo, head of global experiences at Moonbug Entertainment added, “Parents and kids alike will share in making music the Blippi way, with curiosity and silliness center stage!"

Blippi inspires curiosity in preschoolers around the world by creating content and experiences that are relatable, accessible and make learning fun. Blippi has become a worldwide sensation with more than one billion monthly views across platforms including Netflix, HBO Max, Cartoonito, Sky, Amazon and YouTube and millions of fans around the world.  Blippi is available in more than 20 languages, including ASL, and is distributed by more than 30 global broadcast and streaming partners. Blippi lives off the screen with sold-out live events, popular music tracks and in-demand toys available at all major retailers.

Blippi on Tour has traveled the globe multiple times and has delighted millions of international fans throughout North America, the United Kingdom, Mexico, Africa, Asia and the Middle East, and now Blippi: Join the Band Tour comes to Northwest Arkansas on Tuesday, Dec. 10 at 6pm as part of the 2024-25 Pringles Kids Series.
