Paw Patrol Live Baton Rouge

In PAW Patrol Live! “The Great Pirate Adventure,” Mayor Goodway is getting everything shipshape for a big Pirate Day celebration in Adventure Bay. When Cap’n Turbot falls into a dark and mysterious cavern, it’s PAW Patrol to the rescue! Chase, Marshall, Rubble, Skye, Rocky and Zuma save Cap’n Turbot and discover a secret pirate treasure map that leads them on an epic adventure. Over land and on the high seas, the pups set out to find the treasure for Mayor Goodway so the celebration can go on. Things get ruff when Mayor Humdinger wants to find the treasure first for Foggy Bottom. The pups need all paws on deck for this pirate adventure, including help from the newest pup who’s all ears…Tracker! Using their heroic rescue skills, problem solving and teamwork, the pups set sail to save the day. No job is too big, no pirate pup is too small!

PAW Patrol Live! “The Great Pirate Adventure” follows the first live show PAW Patrol Live! “Race to the Rescue,” which is currently touring through 2018. PAW Patrol Live! “The Great Pirate Adventure” includes two acts and an intermission, and incorporates an innovative costume approach to help bring the pups to life on stage as well as their vehicles and packs during the adventure. The performance is interactive, engaging audiences to learn pirate catchphrases, dance the pirate boogie and help the pups follow the treasure map and solve picture puzzles during their mission!

Benefiting Louisiana National Guard’s Operation Christmas Angels
Nickelodeon and Paw Patrol would like to encourage its patrons to bring age appropriate gift donations for children ages 0-9 to the November 18th & 19th performances of PAW Patrol Live!.
Donations will be collected in the lobby of the River Center Performing Arts Theater before each performance.

Donations will benefit the Louisiana National Guard’s Operation Christmas Angels program. This program collects gifts for children of Louisiana National Guard Service members experiencing financial hardships. The Louisiana National Guard continues to be instrumental in missions that range from peacekeeping to the war on terror. Over 5 separate Louisiana National Guard units have deployed overseas this year. They also have sent more than 300 Soldiers to Puerto Rico to assist with hurricane response operations. Raising Cane’s River Center and Broadway in Baton Rouge cannot thank the Louisiana National Guard enough for their support to not only the community but also to the State of Louisiana.

The event will be full of personalized touches such as an official certificate proclaiming their new title, personalized cookie favors and thoughtfully decorated tables to highlight some of their favorite princesses. Door prizes and more! N-joy is using their expertise in event planning to create a production like no other. This is THE princess event to attend with your kiddies!

LSU Athletics is not responsible for the care or security of any items left unattended.

Only CLEAR tote bags smaller than 12″ x 6″ x 12″ will be allowed into Tiger Stadium and all other LSU Athletic venues. One-gallon clear plastic bags and/or small handheld clutch purses (approx. the size of a person’s hand) will also be allowed to enter.
