The 33rd Annual Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards was a special event held online on May 2, 2020. It was officially called "Nickelodeon's Kids’ Choice Awards 2020: Celebrate Together". The show was hosted by Victoria Justice, and Asher Angel performed during the ceremony.
This Kids' Choice Awards was different because it happened virtually, meaning everyone participated from their homes. This was due to the coronavirus pandemic. It was the smallest show since the very first one in 1987. Nickelodeon also gave $1 million to No Kid Hungry. This donation helped children and families who were affected by the pandemic.
Originally, the show was planned to be a big event at The Forum in Inglewood, California. Chance the Rapper was supposed to host, and Justin Bieber and Quavo were going to perform. The show was also meant to happen during Nickelodeon's SlimeFest weekend in March. However, because of the pandemic, SlimeFest was canceled, and the awards show was postponed. Instead of the live show, Nickelodeon aired a "best-of" special on the original date.
The final episode of Henry Danger, called "The Fate of Danger: Part II", was supposed to air right before the awards. But because the awards were postponed, the episode aired on its own earlier.
