The children's character Peppa Pig has revealed plans for a major tour across North America in 2026, featuring classical music performances. The announcement includes a collaboration with Baby Shark on a dance remix. This marks a new phase for the enduring preschool icon.
Peppa Pig, the beloved pig from the popular TV series, is embarking on a significant venture into live performances with her announced 2026 North American tour, named 'My First Concert: A Classical Music Journey.' The tour begins in February 2026, starting with a show on February 6 at the Central Kitsap PAC in Silverdale, Washington, and will span multiple cities, concluding on April 25 at the Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center in Miami, Florida.
The performances will feature Peppa and her family alongside a full orchestra, interpreting songs from the TV show while incorporating sketches that explore the history of classical music. This initiative follows nearly five years after the release of her second album, 'Peppa’s Adventures: The Album,' which came out when she was 4 years old, and its companion 'Peppa’s Club: The Album' a year later. Notably, Peppa remains 4 years old in her ongoing narratives.
Accompanying the tour news is a crossover collaboration: a video for the track 'Baby Shark x Peppa Pig (Dance Remix),' partnering with the viral sensation Baby Shark. Esra Cafer, Hasbro's senior vice president for global brand strategy and management, fashion, and preschool, described Peppa as 'a cultural touchstone for families across generations' in a press release. Bin Jeong, CEO of Pinkfong USA, the parent company of Baby Shark, highlighted Peppa's role in creating a 'special new version of our iconic “doo-doo-doo”' to mark Baby Shark's 10th anniversary.
The tour comes amid changes in Peppa's music management, following the dissolution of her previous label, eOne, into MNRK Music Group. Key stops include venues like the Pantages Theater in Tacoma on February 7, Meridian Hall in Toronto on March 21, and the Dr. Phillips Center in Orlando on April 17, offering families an interactive blend of music and education.
