The news comes after The Wiggles have proven themselves to a much older, hipper crowd than their regular toddler crowd.

It was recently announced that The OG Wiggles will be playing at the Falls Festival next January.

And in July, the iconic group ditched their skivvies for street-cool outfits when they landed their first Rolling Stone cover.

“The past two years have been some of their best in history,” Rolling Stone AU/NZ print editor Jake Challenor beamed about the cover story.

“The Wiggles are more relevant than ever, which is exactly why pop culture icons like Lil Nas X and The Kid Laroi are embracing them.

“Without a doubt, 2022 is officially the Year of the Wiggles.”

The Wiggles proved they were at their best in January when they topped Triple J’s 2021 annual Hottest 100 list with their cover of Tame Impala’s 2012 psychedelic hit Elephant.

Second place went to The Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber for their 2020 hit, Stay.
