Yo Gabba Gabba! is an award-winning, live-action television series and live stage show that revolves around the adventures of DJ Lance Rock and five colorful characters who come to life when they hear the magic words, "Yo Gabba Gabba!" The series launched in 2007 and its unconventional formula has since created a quadruple-stacked fan base, making it a popular entertainment property among preschoolers, their parents, indie-music lovers and celebrities alike.

Demonstrating the brand's pop culture appeal, Yo Gabba Gabba's one-eyed Muno has been seen hawking cars to the over-16 set in a national KIA Sorento commercial that debuted nationally when it was televised during the Super Bowl. Brobee, the little green one, was featured in the nationally televised pistachios campaign commercials. Cupcake bakers on an episode of the hit series "Cupcake Wars" even competed for a place at a Yo Gabba Gabba! LIVE! VIP party during a Yo Gabba Gabba! themed episode.

Yo Gabba Gabba! launched their first live stage performance tour with a float in the 2009 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and they have performed live for President Obama's daughters at The White House. Their first live tour had multiple sold-out gigs and the colorful on-stage extravaganza attracted surprise guests including Arrested Development, Dinosaur Jr., Snoop Dogg, Dave Grohl, Jon Heder, The Aquabats and more, while Christina Aguilera, Halle Berry and Gwen Stefani enjoyed the live stage show with their families. Yo Gabba Gabba! LIVE! has also become a fan favorite at major music festivals such as Coachella in the U.S., where DJ Lance Rock and fans, both big and small, were heard chanting "everybody wash your hands." Yo Gabba Gabba! LIVE! also appeared at the popular Dark MoFo Festival in Australia in June 2014.

The state-of-the-art live show production features music, singing, dancing and animation. Fan favorite Leslie Hall will join the cast on stage along with hip-hop legend Biz Markie who will teach kids how to beat box with "Biz's Beat of the Day." Special guests are invited to join the party on stage in each city for the "Dancey Dance" and "Super Music Friends Show" segments. All new performances of show favorites including the veggie friendly "Party in My Tummy," along with collaborations and medleys that will instantly remind us to jump and dance but "Don't Bite Your Friends!" will be a fun family experience for all.

Champions on the stage and in the community, the Gabba gang will participate in various service projects in the cities they visit during their 55-day journey with REVERB, the non-profit environmental organization dedicated to educating and engaging musicians and their fans to take action toward a more sustainable future. $1 from every ticket sold goes to support environmental efforts and education.
