Histori
On June 7, 1990, Universal Studios Florida opened with an attraction called Nickelodeon Studios. It was a television recording studio for cable television channel Nickelodeon. In 1995, Nickelodeon Splat City opened in three previous Paramount Parks: California Great America, Kings Dominion and Kings Island. This attraction is inspired by many game shows on television networks and generally involves mucus. In 1999, Kings Dominion closed Nickelodeon Splat City in preparation for the 2000 attraction, Nickelodeon Central. Nickelodeon Central sees the retheme of many park-park rides as well as the addition of several new rides. Kings Island followed, closing Splat City in 2000 and opening their Nickelodeon Central in 2001, which would later be expanded and renamed to Nickelodeon Universe in 2006.
In 2002, the Australian Dreamworld theme park opened Nickelodeon Central. In 2003, Nickelodeon Central opened in California Great America, Canada's Wonderland and Carowinds, and Jimmy Neutron's Nicktoon Blast opened at Universal Studios Florida. The expansion of this region occurred in 2005, 2006 and 2008 for Carowinds, Kings Island and Dreamworld, respectively. The Kings Island area was also renamed the Nickelodeon Universe at the same time. In 2007, Movie Park Germany opened a similar area titled Nickland . In 2007, it was announced that the Nickelodeon Universe will open at Mall Of America in 2008, replacing Camp Snoopy . In 2009 and 2010, Cedar Fair terminated their contract with Nickelodeon which resulted in all territories being repeated back to Snoopy Planet . In early 2011, at a cost of Ã, à £ 10 million, Pleasure Beach Blackpool opened the Nickelodeon Land . In mid-2011, Dreamworld had closed Nickelodeon Central and repeated it back to the generic Kid's World theme (later revealed that the park had reached an agreement with DreamWorks Animation). In 2012, Universal Superstar Parade has its first appearance featuring buoys based on SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer and then opens SpongeBob's gift shop in Kidzone Woody Woodpecker. In September 2016, it was announced that the new Nickelodeon Universe will open in the mall and entertainment complex of American Dream Meadowlands owned by Triple Five Group, which also has Mall Of America, with projections opening of October 2019.
