Sunway Lagoon Invites 25 Underprivileged Children To Enjoy Festive Treats And Rides

Malaysia: To celebrate its 25th year, Sunway Lagoon gave the gift of joy and laughter to underprivileged children during the year-end holidays!

In collaboration with Kechara Soup Kitchen, and as part of Sunway Lagoon's “25 Wonder Years” initiative, the theme park invited 25 children aged four to 14 from 11 underprivileged families and their guardians from Kechara Soup Kitchen to experience their “Best Christmas Ever” at the park. The kids had a fun-filled day of thrilling rides, a meet-and-greet session with Santa Claus as well as an educational tour of Sunway Lagoon.

The children started off their day-long outing by witnessing the “changing of guards”. They were then entertained with a welcome dance performed to the park’s 25th anniversary theme song, Experience It. The song was specially arranged and features local artistes Kaka Azraff, Caprice Ariz and Mimi Fly.

Into the park, the young guests were greeted by Santa Claus and his cheeky elves leading to the “Let It Snow – Santa’s Story Time” programme. Santa then presented the children with personalised gifts by Santa according to a wishlist sent to Sunway Lagoon earlier.


Performers welcoming the 25 special visitors to Sunway Lagoon with a special dance.

Sunway Lagoon marketing director Michelle Gregory said the children were very practical in their requests. “They asked for everyday items such as school bags and shoes,” she added.

After the meet-and-greet session, more adventure and surprises enfolded including a guided “wildlife encounter” and learning experience at the Wildlife Park, and a multi-animal showcase at the Wildlife Theatre, where they saw white cockatoos and pelicans performing.

Lunch was then served at one of the event halls next to the water theme park and the children were delighted at the array of Christmas treats, especially the chocolate fondue fountain.


After lunch, with tummies filled, the happy children spent the rest of the day at the Nickelodeon Lost Lagoon, which included wading in the iconic green slime pool during the infamous Slime Time and taking pictures with Nickelodeon characters, before proceeding to enjoy the rest of the water theme park.

“We were delighted to be able to present them with a gift of joy this Christmas as well as fulfil their wishlist.

“It gave us great satisfaction to see the smiles, laughter and the wonderful moments they had today.

“We hope they will keep these happy memories with them,” said Sunway Lagoon general manager Sean Choo.

GameMine Expands Mobile Gaming Subscription Service Offering To Include Nickelodeon Mobile Games Throughout Carrier Networks In Seven Countries

Original GameMine Inc. Press Release via PR Newswire:

GameMine Expands Mobile Gaming Subscription Service Offering To Include Nickelodeon Brand Mobile Games Throughout Carrier Networks In Seven Countries


GameMine is Introducing its Entire Catalogue of Nickelodeon-themed Mobile Games to Subscribers in Switzerland, Spain, Austria, France, Portugal, Belgium, and Poland, Including Seven New Nickelodeon Games Featuring SpongeBob SquarePants, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Nick Sports



LOS ANGELES, Jan. 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- GameMine Inc., a US-based mobile game publisher, is announcing today it has expanded its partnership with global entertainment company and Viacom subsidiary, Nickelodeon. Through this expansion, GameMine is now offering its entire Nickelodeon mobile game catalogue, along with seven new Nickelodeon-themed mobile games, to Swisscom, Moviestar, Orange, A1, and Vodafone mobile network subscribers throughout Switzerland, Spain, Austria, France, Portugal, Belgium, and Poland.

Along with GameMine's entire Nickelodeon mobile game catalog, the following new game titles will immediately be made available to subscribers of the aforementioned mobile carrier networks, as well as to Vodacom mobile network subscribers in South Africa:
  • SpongeBob: Sponge on the Run
  • SpongeBob: Game Frenzy
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Brothers Unite
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Portal Power
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Rooftop Run
  • SpongeBob: Marbles and Slides
  • Nick Sports
GameMine's existing partnerships with Swisscom, Moviestar, Orange, A1, and Vodafone provide subscribers of these mobile networks with access to a diverse and constantly growing catalogue of more than 400 premium mobile games. The expansion of GameMine's partnership with Nickelodeon adds significantly to this catalogue, both in terms of the overall selection of premium mobile games, as well as the addition of titles featuring widely loved and globally-recognized Nickelodeon characters.

"Content providers––and the consumers of that content––have long been dominated by the duopoly of Google Play and Apple App Stores," says Michael Herman, the Chief Operating Officer of GameMine. "The success of our existing partnership with Viacom proves once again that GameMine has created a win-win for our publishers, mobile carriers, and their subscribers. With this expansion, which offers an unmatched alternative to traditional mobile gaming options, GameMine continues to fundamentally change the way the mobile gaming industry operates on a global scale."

GameMine allows for increased monetization of the carrier's subscriber base versus the traditional route of sending subscribers to external app stores to download and pay for mobile games. For mobile gamers, GameMine offers the ability to play any genre of game they want, whenever they want, fully unlocked and without annoying ads.

Additionally, due to GameMine's direct carrier billed model, a credit card is no longer necessary in order to to access a vast selection of mobile games, which has generally been required to purchase games one-by-one via iOS and Android app stores. This seemingly small difference is actually huge for the carrier, and opens up mobile gaming to hundreds of millions of mobile subscribers around the world who lack access to credit cards and other mobile payment options.

About GameMine
GameMine Inc. is a US-based mobile game publisher headquartered in Los Angeles, California. GameMine develops, licenses and acquires mobile games, then provides them to consumers in more than 135 countries through a subscription-based mobile game marketplace. Consisting of a global network of talented developers and gaming experts, multiple industry-leading mobile carrier partnerships and a presence on Google Play, GameMine provides a diverse variety of genre-based mobile gaming portals to satisfy a wide range of gaming interests.

Nickelodeon UK & Nick Jr. UK Enjoy Strong Performances In 2017

Viacom International Media Networks (VIMN) has highlighted the strength of the performance of its UK channels in 2017, led by free-to-air (FTA) broadcaster Channel 5, which delivered the largest audience growth among the country’s public service broadcasters!


Channel 5’s audience grew by 5% to deliver a 6.51% share of all TV viewing, the service’s best performance since 2004. The Channel 5 portfolio, including 5Star, 5USA and 5Spike, also delivered its highest share of viewing to date among the sought-after ABC1 audience segments and 16-24 year-olds, according to Viacom. The portfolio achieved a 5.58% share of this group, which it said reflected its investment in factual and documentary shows including Slum Britain: 50 Years On, produced in partnership with Shelter and natural history documentary, Alaska: A Year in the Wild. The rebranded 5Spike meanwhile saw a 32% increase in viewing share for all individuals.

Viacom's portfolio of channels saw the highest-ever annual share of viewing (SOV) amongst both ABC1s and 16-34 year-old TV viewers.

Viacom channels are growing audiences and are now watched by 8.4% of all TV viewers in the UK. Comedy Central grew its 16-34 audience by 11% and achieved its best year on record in 2017, while Nickelodeon grew 7% and is the number one ranked kids network in pay TV homes, ahead of BBC Kids (CBBC and CBeebies) and Disney, and Nick Jr. achieved its best year on record. MTV also achieved its second highest annual share for 16-34s.


Nickelodeon and Nick Jr.'s growth was buoyed by the launch of more than 140 new episodes of new and returning series and specials, including Hunter Street, Henry Danger, The Thundermans, School of Rock, Paradise Run, Game Shakers, Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn, Nella the Princess Knight, PAW Patrol, Rusty Rivets, and Shimmer and Shine. Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. are set to continue growing their audiences in 2018 with the launch of brand-new shows, such as I Am Frankie and Sunny Day, brand-new episodes and specials of fan-favourite shows, including Hunter Street season two, and must see tentpole events, including Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards 2018.

Commenting on this performance, James Currell, President of Viacom’s UK operations, said: “It speaks volumes for the strength of Channel 5’s performance last year that it gained share from its rivals and won over new audiences in the most intense competitive environment I can remember. It is clear proof our investment in reinventing Channel 5’s schedule is paying off and is contributing strongly to the overall growth of our UK business.”

Channel 5 strongest ratings in 13 years

Channel 5’s portfolio of TV channels delivered its highest-ever annual share of viewing (SOV) amongst both ABC1 and 16 to 34-year-old TV viewers in the UK in 2017, helping the broadcaster to its strongest overall ratings performance for 13 years.

Channel 5’s performance in 2017 contributed to a strong year overall for its parent company, Viacom, which grew overall viewing across its portfolio by 2 per cent to gain an 8.4 per cent share of all TV viewing in the UK.

Despite fresh investment by public service (PSB) competitors, including the transfer of The Great British Bake Off to Channel 4 and the return of Blue Planet to BBC 1, the Channel 5 family of channels secured the largest year-on-year (YoY) audience growth of any terrestrial broadcaster portfolio during 2017, gaining 5 per cent to achieve a 6.51 per cent share of all TV viewing – its best performance since 2004. In addition, Channel 5 delivered its highest ever share over the two-week Christmas period.

Channel 5’s portfolio, including 5Star, 5USA and 5Spike, also delivered the largest growth amongst ABC1 viewers of any PSB channel group, gaining 6 per cent YoY to record a 5.58 per cent share. This represents its highest ever annual SOV for this demographic, reflecting increased investment in critically-acclaimed factual and documentary programming such as Slum Britain: 50 Years On, produced in partnership with Shelter and natural history documentary, Alaska: A Year in the Wild.

Across the year, the Channel 5 portfolio also managed to record its joint highest ever annual SOV for 16-34s, while pre-school block, Milkshake, also achieved its best ever annual share of all kids viewing.

All Channel 5’s flanker channels held or grew SOV during the year, headlined by a 32 per cent increase in share of all individuals (4+) for 5Spike, which was rebranded during the year and has grown audiences every year since launching in 2015.

Comedy Central had its best ever year in 2017, growing SOV amongst its target audience of 16 to 34-year-olds by 11 per cent YoY to 1.84 per cent, making it the most popular channel in pay TV homes amongst that age group, while MTV achieved its second highest ever annual share for this demographic. Nickelodeon was again the number one ranked kids network in pay TV homes in 2017, while Nick Jr. also achieved its best year on record in the UK.

James Currell, President for Viacom’s UK operations, commented: “It speaks volumes for the strength of Channel 5’s performance last year that it gained share from its rivals and won over new audiences in the most intense competitive environment I can remember. It is clear proof our investment in reinventing Channel 5’s schedule is paying off and is contributing strongly to the overall growth of our UK business.”

Channel 5 Audience Share Grows To 6.51% In 2017

Channel 5’s portfolio of channels – which includes the main channel 5Star, 5USA and 5Spike – is home to a wealth of U.S. scripted acquisitions including The X-Files (Channel 5), Will & Grace (Channel 5), Chicago PD (5USA), Fresh Off The Boat (5Star) and Six (5Spike).

Said channels also delivered their highest-ever annual share of viewing amongst both ABC1 with an audience share of 5.58% Across the year, the Channel 5 portfolio also managed to record its joint highest ever annual share of viewing for 16-34s, 5Spike was a particular stand-out when it comes to ratings growth, registering a 32% increase in share of all individuals (4+).

The strong performance of the Channel 5 portfolio contributed to a strong overall year for parent company Viacom, whose overall share grew to 8.4% in 2017. Comedy Central UK has its best ever year with a record audience share of 1.84%; while MTV, Nickelodeon and Nick Jr all registered strong ratings as well.

“It speaks volumes for the strength of Channel 5’s performance last year that it gained share from its rivals and won over new audiences in the most intense competitive environment I can remember”, said James Currell, President for Viacom’s UK operations. “It is clear proof our investment in reinventing Channel 5’s schedule is paying off and is contributing strongly to the overall growth of our UK business.”

The Delaware 87ers To Host Nickelodeon Night Featuring SpongeBob SquarePants (Updated W/ New Photos)

SEVENS TO HOST NICKELODEON NIGHT FEATURING SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS


HOSTED BY REYBOLD GROUP IN SUPPORT OF CHILD INC.


ON WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 3



WILMINGTON, DE – The Delaware 87ers have announced that the team will hold Nickelodeon Night featuring SpongeBob SquarePants on Wednesday, January 3, when the Sevens play the Erie BayHawks at Bob Carpenter Center at University of Delaware, Newark, DE at 7:00 P.M. Marking the latest theme night partnership between Nickelodeon and a team in the NBA Development League, the evening will be hosted by Reybold Group in support of Child Inc., the Wilmington, Delaware based charity advocates for neglected and abused children in the state.


Tickets are currently on sale and can be purchased at Ticketmaster or by calling (302)831-4016. Admission starts at just $15. Ticket sales will benefit CHILD, Inc.

Sevens players will wear custom uniforms inspired by the beloved Nickelodeon star. Jerseys will later be available to fans in an auction, which will also benefit CHILD, Inc.


The Delaware 87ers aren't the first sports team inspired by the Krusty Krab's most dedicated employee. The Norfolk Tides, a Triple-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, also modeled SpongeBob uniforms in 2015.

In March 2017, the Delaware 87ers hosted a Nickelodeon Night featuring Saban’s Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. To celebrate the occasion, Sevens players wore custom uniforms inspired by the Pink Ranger’s iconic design featured in Saban’s Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

About SpongeBob SquarePants

Since its launch in July 1999, SpongeBob SquarePants has emerged as a pop culture phenomenon. The series has been the most-watched animated program with kids 2-11 for more than 15 consecutive years, and over the past several years, it has averaged more than 100,000,000 total viewers every quarter across all Nickelodeon networks. SpongeBob SquarePants is the most widely distributed property in Viacom International Media Networks history, seen in more than 208 countries and territories and translated in 55+ languages. The Paramount Pictures feature film The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water premiered Feb. 6, 2015, landing at #1 opening weekend. The character-driven cartoon chronicles the nautical and sometimes nonsensical adventures of SpongeBob, an incurably optimistic and earnest sea sponge, and his undersea friends.

SpongeBob SquarePants is executive produced by creator Stephen Hillenburg, who previously worked as a writer, director and creative director on Nickelodeon's animated series Rocko's Modern Life. Hillenburg graduated from the California Institute of the Arts with a master's degree in experimental animation and his undergraduate degree, from Humboldt State University, was in natural science with an emphasis in marine biology. Hillenburg executive produced his first feature film, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, which debuted Nov. 19, 2004 and his second theatrical, The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water, hit theaters Feb. 6, 2015. The series is produced at Nickelodeon in Burbank.
