Elmo's Got The Moves!
Details
Get ready to wiggle, giggle, and groove—Elmo’s Got The Moves! is bringing Sesame Street magic to the big stage for one special evening.
This all-new Sesame Street Live production turns a regular Friday night into a full-on family dance party. Elmo, Cookie Monster, Abby Cadabby, Oscar, and more of your favorite furry friends will lead the crowd through songs, games, and interactive moments that keep kids engaged from start to finish.
Expect a colorful mix of classic and new tunes, with hits like:
- “Sunny Days,” the beloved Sesame Street theme song that kicks off the fun
- “Elmo’s Got the Moves,” a high-energy dance number that gets everyone on their feet
- “Letter of the Day,” turning learning into a lively sing-along
The show is designed for all ages, making it a perfect first live-show experience for little ones and a nostalgic treat for grown-ups. The atmosphere is welcoming, noisy-in-a-good-way, and full of chances to clap, shout, and move along with the characters.
Beyond the music, Elmo’s Got The Moves sneaks in plenty of playful learning. Kids are encouraged to explore different ways to move—from silly dances and big stretches to imaginative play that gets their bodies and brains working together. It’s a heartwarming mix of entertainment and gentle life lessons about friendship, confidence, and trying new things.
Helpful notes for families:
- The event is all ages, so strollers, tiny sneakers, and favorite plush friends are all welcome.
- The show features flashing lights, haze (fog), and bursts of confetti, creating a big-stage feel that still feels safe and friendly.
- Doors open early, giving you time to find your seats, grab snacks, and take in the excitement before showtime.
Whether you’re introducing your child to their first theater experience or sharing your own love of Sesame Street with a new generation, Elmo’s Got The Moves is built for memory-making. Expect lots of dancing, plenty of giggles, and a soundtrack your kids will be humming long after the final curtain.
Round up your little monsters, practice your best silly dance, and get ready to spend an evening singing, learning, and moving right along with Elmo and the gang.
Venue Details
Austin City Limits Live, home to ACL Live and 3TEN ACL Live, is a vibrant centerpiece of downtown Austin’s music scene, all gathered at 310 W Willie Nelson Blvd. Built on the legacy of the iconic Austin City Limits television show, the venue fuses modern production with the city’s famously laid-back, music-obsessed spirit.
- ACL Live at The Moody Theater is the larger performance hall, known for hosting a wide spectrum of artists, from global touring acts and legendary performers to special events, galas, and festival showcases.
- 3TEN ACL Live is the more intimate sibling space, a 350-person club designed for up-close performances where fans feel like part of the show rather than spectators in the back row.
- Both spaces are equipped with state-of-the-art sound and lighting, reflecting their roots as professional broadcast and recording stages as well as live concert rooms.
- The venue regularly spotlights a mix of world-renowned artists, rising stars, and local Austin talent, making it a go-to spot for discovering new music and catching favorite bands in thoughtfully curated lineups.
- Beyond concerts, the flexible spaces often transform for private events, parties, and special performances, all while maintaining the signature Austin City Limits look and feel.
Together, ACL Live and 3TEN ACL Live offer two distinct ways to experience live music under one roof: big, cinematic nights in the main theater and high-energy, club-like shows in the smaller room. Both capture the essence of Austin as the Live Music Capital of the World, blending intimate connections between artists and audiences with polished, professional production.
