Delightfully eccentric kids show 'Yo Gabba Gabba!' has announced a 60-city tour of North America featuring wacky hip-hop legend Biz Markie.

Excitedly titled 'Yo Gabba Gabba! Live!: There's a Party in My City!,' the tour stretches across the latter half of the year, starting in Bethel, N.Y. on Aug. 27 and concluding in Dallas, Texas on Dec. 12. For the hip-hop heads in the house, Biz Markie will be on stage to lend some beat boxing lessons in a live version of his popular 'Biz's Beat of the Day' segment that appears regularly on the Nick Jr. show.

Attendees can expect a wild combination of music, singing, dancing and animation that will create an interactive experience that is sure to please the kids. Other guests are expected for stage versions of the show's 'Super Friends Music Show' and 'Dancey Dance' segments. To add even more sweetness, the tour will donate a dollar from every ticket to Habitat for Humanity.

Produced by S2BN Entertainment in association with Wildbrain Entertainment and The Magic Store, the tour will coincide with the September release of the group's second album entitled 'Yo Gabba Gabba! Music Is Awesome Volume 2.' Check out the full dates here.
