First-Ever Nickelodeon SlimeFest In Manila

Posted on Oct 12 2019 - 11:03pm by tweenselmom

The first time I’ve read about Nickelodeon SlimeFest coming to Manila, I’ve already pinned it as an event that we wouldn’t miss. First, I consider myself a kid-at-heart and I remember Nickelodeon as a happy childhood thing and Spongebob and the gang, our family favorite cartoon character is a Nickelodeon character. I also know from previous SlimeFests that happened in other countries that it was always a much-awaited music festival. We’ve always loved music and we thought this is the perfect time to watch music concerts as a family.

Excited to go inside Nickelodeon SlimeFest 2019!

We really attract what we always think of and that was why it didn’t take long before I got an invitation to see the event with the kids. And you know what? It was indeed Slimetastic! We were not able to join in the slime pit as we were not prepared to be slimed! And we regretted it!

Manila’s SlimeFest was a full-day event opened for all ages with a free admission festival area from 11 AM to 5 PM. The area featured unique and engaging experiences for the whole family including photo-ops with Nickelodeon characters like SpongeBob SquarePants, Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, PAW Patrol, and Dora the Explorer.

All the characters, unfortunately, appeared early and we missed them all, how sad. So we just contented ourselves taking photos of the walls. Oh, well!

The moment the arena turned dark, that was when the party for us began. The temperature got cooler and the wind was pleasant. There were plenty of booths offering food and merchant products like Nickelodeon shirts and bags. And then the musical festival happened, with the much-awaited music celebrities appearing one by one.

the concert! watch the clip as the audience get slimed!

Thai German singer-songwriter and actress Jannine Weigel. Known for her YouTube channel, Weigel is the first Thai to receive a Gold Play Button from the video-sharing website for reaching 1 million subscribers after posting viral song covers like Charlie Puth’s See You Again, Passenger’s Let Her Go, and Sia’s Elastic Heart. From doing covers, Weigel has moved on to recording her own songs in Thai and other languages. She released her first single Chak Din Chak Ngo in 2015.

Kira Kosarin made her television debut at age 14. In 2013, her big break came when she was cast as Phoebe Thunderman, one of the superhero twins, in Nick’s The Thundermans. After the series wrapped up in 2017, Kosarin focused on her singing career by posting her songs on YouTube. Since then, Kosarin has written three albums including singles like Spy, Vinyl, and Take This Outside.

Carlie Hanson was a former fast food chain cashier in Wisconsin and his career kicked off when she posted a cover of Zayn Malik’s Pillowtalk to join an Instagram contest to watch his concert in 2016. She then caught the attention of music producers and gained more YouTube followers. Hanson started releasing her own songs includingOnly One in 2017. Her first EP titled Junk came out last June, which includes WYA. Taylor Swift showed her support for Hanson when she added her singlesto her Apple Music playlist.

My daughters’ much-awaited Filipino acts were IV of Spades which is a popular funk-pop Pinoy band that was nominated for Best Southeast Asia Act nominee at the 2018 MTV EMAs; 11-year-old rapper Alex Bruce, known for her rhyme-busting technique; and hip-hop dance troupe Philippine Allstars.

Overall, it was a fantastic night for the four of us, getting hyped with OPM music and everything that went on in the festival. We realized how fun it is to go together to an outdoor concert so I took this day as a milestone for our family. Thanks Nickelodeon for the slimetastic day (though we didn’t get slimed) and hope to see you again soon in the Philippines!

    I’ve loved Nickelodeon in the mid-80s, and I grew to love it again while my kids were growing up. Sounds like a great family outing!

    I know those kids totally lost it around all of that slime. Sounds like a ball and I wouldn’t mind visiting with the little ones one day myself.

    That’s the kind of festival all of my kids would enjoy (even my grown ones). 🙂 We had a Nick hotel here but it closed before we got to visit. 🙁

    When my oldest niece was a toddler she made me watch all her favorite Nickelodean shows with her so reading the names was like a blast from the past. It looks like a fun day for adults and kids alike.
