This year marked the first Nickelodeon Slime Cup where Nickelodeon live action stars were in attendance – Megan Lee, Louriza Tronco and Dale Whibley, stars of comedic, music-infused series Make It Pop, were in town to meet fans and partake in the stage games, much to the delight of their fans.

The highlight of this year’s event was the Leaky Lincoln booth featuring Lincoln from animated series The Loud House. Kids and their parents and caregivers sat under Lincoln’s “nose” and were showered in the green goo. Make It Pop’s Megan Lee, Louriza Tronco and Dale Whibley got to be slimed for the first time in their lives.

A four-feet tall Nickelodeon Slime Cup trophy was on display and kids took on ninja jousting, slime bowling and slime water gun shooting, amongst other game challenges. There were ecstatic faces all round amongst those who got slimed at random each time the Slime Siren went off.

Kids used slime water guns to shoot down their opponent’s targets at the No Paint, No Gain! booth. The SpongeBob’s Soccer Showdown court was where children were strapped to ropes and took part in human foosball matches. The victorious teams walked away with Nickelodeon Slime Cup medals and goodies.
