Nickelodeon’s Slimefest returns to Blackpool this October

Published on: 1st February 2018

Slimefest 2018 will take place at The Arena at Blackpool Pleasure Beach from 20th – 22nd October.

Nickelodeon UK is partnering again with VisitBlackpool to bring Nickelodeon’s Slimefest back to the UK’s favourite beach resort for a third year of slime, music, and mayhem following last year’s six sold out shows.

Bringing back a unique mix of music acts, special guests, and surprises, tickets are on sale from today. Families can purchase tickets and find out more information at www.nick.co.uk/slime. Last year 12,000 people attended The Arena at Blackpool Pleasure Beach and 9,000 litres of slime were used across the weekend.

Alison Bakunowich, SVP general manager, Nickelodeon UK & Ireland, commented: “Slimefest 2018 promises to be yet another fun, messy and incredible weekend, it’s sure to be a hit with kids and parents alike. Last year was a huge success – with stellar acts, presenters and of course, plenty of slime. We plan to make this year’s even better.”

Cllr Gillian Campbell, deputy leader of Blackpool Council, commented: “We are so excited to be partnering again with Nickelodeon on another Slimefest. This is a great event for families and we are looking forward to more slime-filled fun this year.”
