5 Seconds of Summer surprised fans at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on Monday night (Nov. 2), bringing out The Wiggles during the final song of the show.

The Australian pop-rock band closed the concert with “Everyone’s a Star!”, joined onstage by the children’s music group The Wiggles. Their appearance turned the finale into a cross-generational meeting of two Australian acts.

The surprise featured members of The Wiggles’ current lineup and familiar characters: Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog, Henry the Octopus and the Tree of Wisdom. Original Purple Wiggle Jeff Fatt also joined the performance.

“We love what they do, and it’s always so special to celebrate incredible Aussie talent,” said Yellow Wiggle Tsehay Hawkins of the collaboration. “We couldn’t wait to jump on stage to bring a little Wiggly magic to their final song of the night. It was so much fun.”

Fan-shot footage from the arena began circulating online after the performance, showing 5 Seconds of Summer and The Wiggles sharing the stage during the closing number.

The Melbourne concert is part of 5 Seconds of Summer’s Everyone’s a Star! World Tour, supporting the band’s sixth studio album, Everyone’s a Star!. Released in 2025 via Republic Records, the album debuted at No. 6 on the Billboard 200.

The Australian leg of the tour has included Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, with dates in Adelaide and Perth still to come.

The Wiggles are also touring Australia with the Sparkle! BIG SHOW. Upcoming stops include Newcastle, Canberra, Adelaide, Perth, Melbourne, Hobart, Launceston, Brisbane, Wollongong and Sydney through December.

The cameo closed another Australian arena show for 5 Seconds of Summer, who have continued touring internationally behind Everyone’s a Star!.
