Trivia:[]
- This is the first VeggieTales stage show besides the Dollywood shows to use the 2002 finale theme, it would be used at the next show VeggieTales Live! On Stage! (2022 reboot).
- Larry’s verse in I Can Be Your Friend is now slightly extended.
- This is one of the first live shows for several things:
- the first live show in a VeggieTales Live! Production from 2018-2026 to not get a direct-to video release. This was likely due to DHX Media holding the copyright notice for the show. DHX Media would later become WildBrain! So, the copyright notice expired yet again.
- The first live show where Archibald Asparagus, Jerry Gourd, and Pa Grape reappear since their disappearances in 2012.
- the first VeggieTales Live! to feature The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything at the end of Act 1.
- The first VeggieTales Live! Production to feature the song Keep Walking since VeggieTales Live! On Stage!.
- The first VeggieTales Live! show to feature a costumed version of Petunia Rhubarb, Madame Blueberry, Laura Carrot and Mr. Nezzer
- the first VeggieTales Live! Production to feature sheep since VeggieTales Live! On Stage!.
