Wiggles fans have been left disappointed after tickets to several of their upcoming New Zealand shows sold out within minutes after going on sale this morning.

The Wiggles Fun Tour will see the colourful quartet of children's entertainers perform 15 shows throughout the country in June.

Tickets went on sale at 10.30am, however devastated parents are now arranging road trips to ensure their kids can catch the Wiggles in other towns, after tickets for eight shows throughout Auckland, Hamilton, Napier and Christchurch quickly disappeared.

The Wiggles have since announced they are now working to arrange an extra show in Auckland after the morning and afternoon matinee shows at the Bruce Mason Centre on June 1 were snapped up in just two minutes.

Group members Emma Watkins, Lachlan Gillespie, Simon Pryce and Anthony Field will appear along with popular characters Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog, Henry the Octopus, Captain Feathersword and their "brand new friend" Shirley Shawn the Unicorn.
