Nickelodeon is a super popular TV channel that broadcasts in the Netherlands and also in Belgium (through satellite). It started as a TV channel on 14 July 2003. Before that, it was a special block of shows on another channel called Kindernet, starting in 2002.
Besides the well-known Nickelodeon shows from around the world, the channel also creates its own special shows just for Dutch viewers. Some of these cool local shows include ZOOP, Het Huis Anubis, Het Huis Anubis en de Vijf van het Magische Zwaard, and SuperNick.

Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards
The Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards are a big event where kids vote for their favorite stars, shows, and movies. The Dutch version of these awards was held in 2004, 2005, and 2007. These shows featured nominees that were popular with Dutch audiences.
In 2010, the main American Kids' Choice Awards show was broadcast. This special broadcast included extra categories just for viewers in the Netherlands and Belgium. This made the show even more exciting for local fans.
Nickelodeon in Belgium
Nickelodeon has a special version just for Flanders, which is a region in Belgium. This Flemish version has different ads and sometimes different shows compared to the Dutch channel. Most TV providers in Belgium show this Flemish version.
However, if you watch TV through the satellite provider TV Vlaanderen in Belgium, you will get the Dutch version of Nickelodeon. This is because TV Vlaanderen uses the same broadcast signal as the Dutch CanalDigitaal.
Channel Popularity
In recent years, more and more people are watching TV shows online or through on-demand services. This means fewer people are watching traditional TV channels like Nickelodeon in the Netherlands.
For example, in 2009, Nickelodeon was watched by 2.1% of viewers on an average day. But by 2019, this number went down to 0.7%. In 2020, it dropped even further to 0.4%. This shows how much TV watching habits have changed!
