Kids' Choice Awards 2024 premieres just ahead of the SpongeBob series anniversary, which launched July 17, 1999, and will take place in an animated setting through enhanced graphics and advanced augmented reality, simulcasting across Nickelodeon, TeenNick, Nicktoons and Nick Jr. Honoring kids' and fans' favorites across movies, television, music, sports and more, Kids' Choice Awards 2024 will be held at Pauley Pavilion on the campus of UCLA in Los Angeles. Nominees, presenters, and celebrity appearances will be announced soon.

"SpongeBob SquarePants' combines creator Stephen Hillenburg's love of the ocean with his passion for animation and love of quirky character comedy," said Tom Kenny (voice of SpongeBob SquarePants). "From its first splash, SpongeBob has resonated with people of all ages, and I'm truly grateful to celebrate 25 years of positivity, optimism, and nautical nonsense. Our entire cast and crew look forward to celebrating SpongeBob's Silver Jubilee with our friends and fans across the globe!"

Said Bill Fagerbakke (voice of Patrick Star): "When I first saw the pilot episode 'Help Wanted' in 1998, I was thrilled. I felt flushed with a childlike joy. This celebration of creativity, uniquely layered humor and playful delight have characterized SpongeBob SquarePants for the past 25 years. To portray Patrick, who still makes me laugh, amidst my stellar castmates and brilliant creative team is a gift beyond measure."
