This high-energy live show brings the bright orange glasses, big questions, and catchy songs of Blippi off the screen and onto the stage for an evening designed especially for young children and their grown-ups.

Be Like Blippi Tour! at Warner Theatre

Blippi has become a global favorite for preschoolers through his wildly popular videos on YouTube and streaming platforms, where his childlike, enthusiastic personality turns everyday places—like construction sites, farms, museums, and playgrounds—into colorful classrooms. The character’s signature blue-and-orange outfit, curiosity-driven questions, and simple explanations help kids explore the world around them, making learning about trucks, animals, colors, numbers, and jobs feel like an adventure instead of a lesson.

On the Be Like Blippi Tour, that spirit of exploration becomes a full theatrical experience. The live show features fan-favorite songs like “The Excavator Song,” “Monster Truck,” “Dino Dance,” and “Curious Like Me,” along with plenty of new surprises woven into a story that encourages kids to move, sing, and participate throughout the performance. Families can expect a mix of music, dancing, playful skits, and interactive moments that invite kids to shout answers, copy dance moves, and get up on their feet rather than stay seated the whole time.

Like other Blippi live productions, the Be Like Blippi Tour is built with young attention spans in mind. The show is typically geared toward kids ages 2 to 7, with bright visuals, big characters, and easy-to-follow stories that keep things moving at a fast, engaging pace. The characters Blippi and his best friend Meekah are portrayed onstage by professional performers selected specifically for the tour, allowing them to sing, dance, and interact with the audience while staying true to the familiar personalities kids know from the screen.

Parents who’ve attended Blippi live shows in other cities often describe them as more like a kid-friendly concert than a traditional sit-and-watch theater outing. Expect plenty of volume, confetti, and colorful lighting effects, along with a theater full of children singing along and moving with the music. Many families come dressed in orange and blue or wearing Blippi glasses, turning the night into a shared celebration that feels just as exciting for the kids as seeing a favorite pop star in concert is for adults.

What makes Blippi especially appealing for parents is that the fun is always tied to learning. Across his videos and related series like “Blippi’s Job Show,” the character focuses on curiosity about how things work and what people do for a living—whether that’s a mail carrier, zookeeper, pilot, or mechanic. That same approach carries over to the live tour, where songs and segments reinforce early concepts like counting, shapes, colors, movement, and problem-solving, all wrapped in an upbeat, silly package that kids don’t even realize is educational.

The Be Like Blippi Tour also emphasizes an important message: every child has their own spark of curiosity, and it’s something to be celebrated. The show encourages kids to “Be Like Blippi” not by copying everything he does, but by asking questions, trying new things, and staying excited about discovering the world around them. For many families, that makes this event more than just a fun night out—it becomes a memory kids talk about long after the final song, and a springboard for continued learning and imaginative play at home.

If you have a Blippi fan in your house—or a little one who loves trucks, dinosaurs, music, and dancing—this is a perfect first theater experience. The familiar songs, interactive format, and kid-centered atmosphere make it easy for young children to enjoy live performance without the formality of a traditional show.
