Nickelodeon SlimeFest Tickets

For fans of the long-running TV channel Nickelodeon, SlimeFest is one of the most exciting festivals of the year. Visiting fans are able to meet stars of their favorite TV shows, explore slime mazes, participate in creative endeavors and enjoy live music. When you purchase a ticket for this event, you're purchasing a pass to a weekend of live entertainment from both Nickelodeon stars and outside talent alike. This festival also has almost non-stop live music from major stars, including Bebe Rexha, Pitbull and T-Pain. Because it features a different set of artists each year, each SlimeFest event offers new music and new experiences for even the most regular of attendees. SlimeFest offers a truly unique environment — while much of it focuses on music, this isn't your traditional music festival. Set in an environment very much like a county fair or local carnival, SlimeFest combines the excitement of a music festival with the relaxed atmosphere of a family event and, of course, the trademark Nickelodeon Slime.

From Down Under to the Windy City: How SlimeFest Came to the US

As much as getting covered in green slime might seem to be an American tradition, the truth is that Nickelodeon's SlimeFest didn't even begin in the US — it started in Australia in 2012. Executives at Nickelodeon believed that there was a need for more activities for kids and their parents to do together, and thus, SlimeFest was born. Finally, in 2018, the festival came the United States. It started in Chicago, where it was also held in 2019. However, SlimeFest isn't held in the United States each year. The festival continues to be held in the UK, Australia and Italy as well. Each year, the SlimeFest team decides where the festival will be held. It doesn't follow a set pattern when it comes to the hosting country.
