The news the Wiggles are coming to New Zealand has delighted both young, and young at heart, but no more so than 3- and 4-year-old sisters; Harper and Ava Woodham.

The toddlers are perhaps the Wiggles biggest fans, having travelled from Hawke's Bay to Palmerston North in 2017 to avoid missing out on seeing them live.

Yesterday it was announced the group will perform at the Napier Municipal Theatre on June 3 as part of a nationwide tour. There will be 10am and 1pm shows.

The Wiggle Fun Tour will see the children's entertainers perform in Auckland, Hamilton, Napier, Palmerston North, Wellington, Dunedin and Christchurch.

Band members Emma Watkins, Lachlan Gillespie, Simon Pryce and Anthony Field will be joined by Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog, Henry the Octopus, Captain Feathersword and their "brand new friend" Shirley Shawn the Unicorn.

Mother Fiona Woodham said they were "very excited".

"They love the TV programme and dancing too that and that's what got them into ballet too, because Emma Wiggle does ballet," she said.

Tickets for all shows go on sale March 28, at 10.30am. For more information, visit: http://www.thewiggles.com/tours/38/wiggle-fun-tour
