Heelys To Sponsor Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards 2016 In New Pan-European Sponsorship Deal

Following the success of the Heelys' pan-European sponsorship deal of the "Nickelodeon 2015 Kids' Choice Awards" (KCAs), the wheeled trainer brand will be returning as a sponsorship partner of the pan-European broadcast of the "Nickelodeon 2016 Kids Choice Awards"!

The multiplatform deal is set to be bigger and better this year, with supporting digital activations and on-air creative that will run across Nickelodeon's international platforms outside of the US from Autumn (Fall) 2015 until the show airs in Europe in the Spring of 2016.


Other KCA 2016 sponsorship activities will include off-air marketing, social and editorial promotions, which will span across 13 European countries including the UK, Ireland, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Holland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, France, Italy, Spain and Portugal. Money-can't-buy prizes such as a KCA VIP family trip ticket and more will also be up for grabs.

"Nickelodeon's 29th Annual Kids’ Choice Awards" will once again be rolling out the Orange Carpet for the ultimate kid experience, with plenty of glitz, glamour and slime. The KCAs reach a global TV audience of more than 375 million households in more than 25 languages, and is the only awards show that gives kids the power to vote for their favourite stars.


As part of Heelys ongoing partnership with Nickelodeon, this year will see the launch of "Kick Back and relax with evenings on Nickelodeon, sponsored by Heelys", a one hour on-air sponsorship that will run throughout November 2015 across multiple international territories, including the UK, Ireland, and key European countries.

Vicki Sutherland, Heelys EU Marketing Director, said: "We are thrilled to be working with Nickelodeon for the Kids' Choice Awards again this year. The partnership made complete sense in terms of brand fit and market audience, and as a result we received huge levels of engagement across Europe. In fact, like for like sales are up by 150 per cent year on year, which is fantastic and made the decision to renew the sponsorship an easy one!

"We are excited for the start of the pre-Christmas campaigns to begin, especially to see how the new 'Kick Back and relax with evenings on Nickelodeon, sponsored by Heelys' sponsorship will work, which we hope will help to reinforce our association with Nickelodeon and continue to raise our profile internationally."

Building long term partnerships with brands that fit so seamlessly with Nickelodeon is something we take huge pride in."
