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.
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.

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.

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
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!

O wow! Love the sound of this. I could see my kid going wild for this event. I wish you shared an image of the slimes. Love!
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.
OMG SlimeFest went to Manila?? Wow I missed the one in Atlanta but glad you had a good time.
I remember always watching the sliming videos when I was younger. Love that they still do that!
The event looks so fun, it was such a happy day to all of you, IV of spades is such a fantastic band. 😘
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.
This looks like fantastic festival for kids. It looks like there is lot to do x
That is one event I had never attended but it looked like a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing your experience!
