Nickelodeon Australia Announces Cody Simpson, Justice Crew And Timomatic To Perform At SLIMEFEST 2014

Nickelodeon Australia has unveiled the first three aweslime performers who will be performing at this year's SLIMEFEST event, the BIGGEST kid-powered, star filled family slimefest of the year, Nickelodeon SLIMEFEST 2014, which this year is going to be bigger, better and SLIMIER than ever before and feature the most slime of all time!


Nick Australia has announced in a post on their official Facebook profile page, facebook.com/NickelodeonAustralia, that the Australian pop singer Cody Simpson, the Sydney-based all-male hip-hop dance & pop music group and "Australia's Got Talent" winners Justice Crew, and the Australian singer-songwriter and dancer Timomatic will perform at SLIMEFEST 2014!



"I can't wait to come back to Australia to get completely drenched in the green stuff and celebrate Slimefest with my home country," Cody Simpson said. "Aussie kids really know how to get messy and have fun." Cody Simpson's hits include "On My Mind" and the Australian singer currently has five million Twitter followers. Cody Simpson got a epic joint slime shower with Austin Mahone after NickHeads voted both of them slime-worthy at the Nickelodeon "Kids' Choice Awards 2014" in March 2014 and was recently exclusively interviewed by Nickelodeon Germany presenters Laura Garde And Sascha Quade during his recent only performance in Germany for "Nickelodeon Alaaarm", which also took fans and viewers behind-the-scenes of his concert.


Australia's dance troupe Justice Crew started from humble beginnings in Sydney's western suburbs and the seven-member outfit became one of 2010's hottest talking points when they won "Australia's Got Talent". With the series win, they collected the $250,000 victor's prize cheque and a contract with Sony Music. The troupe tipped cash into a band fund and invested in Justice Academy Inc, a program which helps disadvantaged young Australians work on their confidence, self-expression and team-building skills by hosting free dance workshops and classes. All seven members are hands-on at the Justice Academy, which uses music and dance to empower future generations. Age is no barrier. In 2010, the Academy's 5- 9-year-old graduates competed in the 2010 LA World Hip Hop competition under the name "Little Justice". Justice Crew have performed around Australia and recently travelled the US supporting Pitbull and Ke$ha. Justice Crew recently broke the record as the longest running Australian act at No. 1 on the ARIA singles charts for their hit single, "Que Sera".


Soul star Timomatic (Tim Omaji) is a Nigerian-born Australian singer-songwriter and dancer. Timomatic rose to fame as a contestant on "So You Think You Can Dance" (Australia) in 2009 and placed seventh in the competition. In 2011, he appeared as a contestant on the fifth season of "Australia's Got Talent" and was placed third. Later that year, Timomatic signed with Sony Music Australia and released his first single, "Set It Off", in November 2011, which peaked at number two on the ARIA Singles Chart and was certified four times platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association. Timomatic recently guest-starred in the tenth season of Nickelodeon Australia and New Zealand's adventure reality series for best friends, "Camp Orange: Force 10".

To make sure that their third annual SLIMEFEST event is the biggest, bestest and and slimiest SLIMEFEST ever to give attendees the slime of their life, Nick AU will take over the Sydney Olympic Park Sports Centre in Sydney (SYD), New South Wales (NSW) on Friday 26th September 2014 to hold their first SLIMEFEST concert, then will be taking all the slimy action on the road to Melbourne (MEL) to hold a second SLIMEFEST concert at the State Netball Hockey Centre in Parkville, Victoria (VIC)! Each concert will feature two SLIMEFEST shows, a morning show at 11:00am and a evening show at 6:00pm. Tickets go on sale on Ticketmaster Australia from Monday 14th July 2014 at 9:00am.

Nickelodeon Australia is expected to announce more guests and performers who will be attending SLIMEFEST 2014 in the coming weeks.
