Welcome to the Show

Welcome to the Show is the ninth of eleven songs from the film My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks. It is performed by the Dazzlings, the Rainbooms, and Sunset Shimmer during the climatic battle of the film. The instrumental piece Rainbooms Battle plays between the end of the Dazzlings' second verse and the beginning of Sunset Shimmer's verse. After the Dazzlings are defeated and their necklaces destroyed, they attempt to sing the "We will be adored..." part of the song again, but they sing horribly and are booed off the stage. This is the longest song in the Equestria Girls films, beating out The Flim Flam Brothers song from the season two episode The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 in the Friendship is Magic animated series by forty-four seconds.

The second section of the song was first heard as part of the V.I.F. game on the Equestria Girls website. The song serves as the sixth track on the soundtrack album "My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack". Minor differences between the film and soundtrack versions include additional vocals by Aria Blaze and Sonata Dusk in the film during the line "Your time is running out" and extra instrumental accompaniment during Sunset Shimmer's verse on the soundtrack.
