The Wiggles Movie

The first theatrical feature-length film starring The Wiggles, it was shown in cinemas in Australia on December 18, 1997, but it was lost.

The film was released in North America as a direct-to-video film in 2003 from HIT Entertainment, under the title Magical Adventure! A Wiggly Movie.
