Nickelodeon Australia and New Zealand's 'SLIME CUP' Returns For Season Three, Announcing QICGRE Partnership and New Audition Locations

Update (5/4): Added Nickelodeon SLIME CUP season three audition locations and Nickelodeon Craft Village events at the Hyperdome Shopping Centre in QLD, Westpoint Shopping Centre in NSW, and the Watergardens Shopping Centre in VIC!

Nickelodeon Slimes OMD Execs To Celebrate Launch Of 'SLIME CUP' Season 3

To celebrate the announcement of SLIME CUP’s third season, Nickelodeon Australia and New Zealand visited global media agency OMD's Australian offices on Friday 16th March 2018 to present what’s in store for the next season!


While they were there, they bestowed the ultimate honour of slime on Yvette Mayer, Managing Director (MD) of OMD Sydney; and Daniel Tray, screen trading manager (pictured above).

Over the next week, Nickelodeon will visit UM, Wavemaker, MCN, Ikon, DenstuX, and Carat to perform a sliming on whoever the organisation deems fit, so now’s the time for that revenge on your boss!

Nickelodeon has perfected its top-secret slime recipe, BTW, resulting in a perfect, sticky slime.

However, sliming is the ultimate honour from Nickelodeon, only bestowed upon an elite few including superstar celebrities at Nickelodeon's Kids’ Choice Awards, held every year in March. And this time, it’s performing it in honour of returning series SLIME CUP.


Returning for its third year, Nickelodeon Australia and New Zealand’s locally-produced series will be heading to more audition locations than ever before after announcing a new strategic partnership with QICGRE.

In partnership with QICGRE, Nickelodeon will bring SLIME CUP live auditions to brand new locations in three states across Australia for the first time: Watergardens Town Centre in Victoria, Hyperdome in Queensland and Westpoint in New South Wales. The search for TV stars begins on Saturday 7th April 2018.

During the live audition periods, Nickelodeon will be taking over these three centres with two weeks of holiday activities for the whole family including craft villages, character meet-and-greets and holiday activities for all.

Ben Cox, General Manager (GM) and Vice President (VP) of Nickelodeon for Australia and New Zealand, said kids who had previously come a long way for SLIME CUP will now have somewhere closer to home for live auditions.

“Over the past two years we’ve had thousands of kids from across Australia and New Zealand audition for the series, so this year we’re putting our cameras on the ground in brand new locations,” he said.

“Our partnership with QICGRE allows us to reach more families in even more locations than ever before; not only for the SLIME CUP auditions, but also during the two weeks of family entertainment surrounding these times.”

Premiering on Friday 29th June 2018 at 5.30pm (AEDT), the six-episode series will have a new format: 12 talented teams of two will face off against each other in challenging heats before the top three teams meet in the finals.

The 12 teams will be selected from the live auditions as well as from online video auditions.

Kids aged nine to 13 from across Australia and New Zealand will be able to audition for the series, either at one of the live audition locations or by uploading a video audition via the website, slimecup.com.au.

Nickelodeon Slime Cup Auditions
Saturday 21 - Sunday 22 April
9AM - 4PM
Level 1

Nickelodeon are searching all over Australia and New Zealand for 12 lucky teams to star in the slimiest, most awesome TV show on the planet - SLIME CUP!

You and your bestie are invited to team up and try-out to take on slime-filled obstacle courses and challenges for a chance win the most prestigious title any kid could wish for: THE SLIME CUP.

Step 1

First, give your team a name that is inspired by ANY Nickelodeon show or character. There are heaps of Nickelodeon shows to choose from and your name must be inspired by a Nickelodeon show or character for you to enter!

Tips:
- Keep your team name short and snappy. Two words at most.
- Avoid using words like ‘crazy, funny, kooky, wacky or zany’ in your name, and DON’T use the word SLIME in your team name!

Step 2

Next, start designing a team outfit that celebrates the Nickelodeon show or character you’re inspired by. Every team needs to show the Nick crew that:

- You are a total Nickelodeon superfan
- You are ready to take on SLIME CUP

Tips:
- No outfit is too weird or epic so go crazy!
- Remember if you’re chosen you’ll be wearing the costume on the super-slippery slime cup courses, so you don’t want a costume that slows you down!

Step 3

You and your teammate are now ready to audition! You’ll be asked to tell the Nickelodeon crew who you are, show them why you’re a huge Nickelodeon fan and convince them that you’re hilarious, star-worthy and ready to take on SLIME CUP!

Have any questions? Click HERE!

SLIME CUP is open to teams of kids aged 9 to 13 years of age on July 1, 2018, who are residents of Australia or New Zealand. Each team member will need to have a parent/guardian with them to sign the permission form for Nickelodeon to film your audition.
