Are you ready to dive into a world of slime, SpongeBob, and all your favorite Nickelodeon characters? Then pack your bags and head to one of the two Nickelodeon Universe theme parks, where the magic of Nick cartoons leaps off the screen and into real life. Located in New Jersey and Minnesota, these parks promise fun, excitement, and nostalgia for kids and kids-at-heart.
Nickelodeon Universe at American Dream, New Jersey
Nestled within the sprawling American Dream mall in East Rutherford, New Jersey, Nickelodeon Universe boasts the title of North America’s largest indoor theme park. This 8.5-acre playground is a paradise for thrill-seekers and cartoon lovers alike.
Picture this: you’re zooming through the air on the Shellraiser, the steepest roller coaster in the world, inspired by the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Or perhaps you’re spinning wildly on the Shredder, another TMNT-themed ride. If you prefer a slower pace, you can float down the lazy river in the world’s first DreamWorks Water Park, conveniently located next door.
Nickelodeon Universe at Mall of America, Minnesota
If you’re in the Midwest, the Nickelodeon Universe in the Mall of America, Bloomington, Minnesota, is the place to be. As the first-ever Nickelodeon theme park, it covers seven acres of pure entertainment bliss right in the heart of the largest shopping mall in the United States.
Minnesota’s Nickelodeon Universe is also home to unique seasonal events, including a spooky Halloween transformation and festive winter wonderlands. Plus, with over 27 rides and attractions, there’s no shortage of excitement to fill your day.
Both Parks: A Slime-tastic Experience
No matter which Nickelodeon Universe you visit, you’re guaranteed a day packed with fun, laughter, and a dash of green slime. Both parks offer a perfect blend of high-octane thrills and family-friendly attractions, all while immersing you in the whimsical world of Nickelodeon. From live entertainment to character meet-and-greets, every corner of these parks bursts with color, excitement, and, of course, slime!
