In honor of SpongeBob SquarePants' 25th anniversary, Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts is launching a celebration. The event will take place throughout July 2024 as part of the award-winning Summer of SpongeBob program. 

Both Nickelodeon resorts have introduced new SpongeBob beach-themed overlays, perfect for family photo ops during this special anniversary along with a limited-time 25th-anniversary sandcastle display created by local artists. 

Adding to the excitement, watch party events will feature iconic SpongeBob episodes. Guests are encouraged to dress up in their favorite SpongeBob attire and enjoy the experience with popcorn, sodas, ice cream and cotton candy. Additionally, 25th Anniversary retail items will be available for purchase.

At Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, Team Nick will host an epic surprise party for SpongeBob, with SpongeBob, Patrick and Squidward in attendance. Guests are invited to join in the festivities, which include a giant cake, games, piñatas, party favors, live music, and character photo ops. Additionally, there will be a live DJ at the Gourmet Village, Splash Mobs and more. 

Guests at Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Riviera Maya, Mexico can party with SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward and Sandy. The festivities will take place at the Golden Pineapple in the Main Lobby and include plenty of dancing and a raffle with fantastic prizes. Kids can even enjoy a special SpongeBob-themed drink.

Additionally, Nickelodeon is kicking off SpongeBob SquarePants' 25th anniversary with SpongeBob and Patrick hosting the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards 2024 live from Bikini Bottom on Saturday, July 13, 2024 at 8:00 p.m. (ET/PT).
