This October will mark the 40th anniversary of the legendary Nickelodeon game show, Double Dare, and to celebrate, Marc Summers, the original host of Double Dare, along with the show's original crew, Robin and Harvey, will be heading back to the show's roots by hosting the Marc Summers & Friends’ 40 Year Double Dare Reunion in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania!
Taking place just blocks away from WHYY's Forum Theater, where the first episodes of Double Dare were taped before production moved to Nickelodeon Studios in Orlando, Florida, this one-night-only event will invite Gakheads to join the cast and crew behind Double Dare as they recount their favorite moments both on and off camera and get the "Inside Slop" of the groundbreaking series that grew from a small kids’ game show into a global phenomenon… and put Nickelodeon on the map!
"Now, 40 years later, we're inviting YOU to be wined and dined - with slime-themed specialty drinks available from City Winery! - as we dish out the 'Inside Slop' on how TV's messiest game show was made! The cast and crew from DOUBLE DARE will take the stage one last time, to divulge everything from the secret slime recipe to tales of behind-the-scenes shenanigans!"

On Your Marc, Get Set, GO! During the evening, host Marc Summers (and other surprise guests) will randomly pull volunteers from the audience to compete in physical challenges just like the ones you always wanted to play on TV! There might even be some "fabulous prizes"* in store... But be careful! There's a chance things could get a little messy... and we wouldn't want that to happen, now, would we?
The Double Dare 40th Reunion event will take place on Sunday, October 4 at City Winery Philadelphia. Only 300 tickets are available to attend this event, with Stage Premier VIP upgrades available that will put you in the middle of the Splat Zone.
