In The Thundermans, teenage twins Max (Jack Griffo) and Phoebe (Kira Kosarin) take sibling rivalry to superhuman heights. If living in a family of extraordinary superheroes is not difficult enough, Phoebe and Max go to the same high school and must juggle friends, crushes and their dislike of each other all whilst trying to keep their true identities secret. The Thundermans airs weekdays on Nickelodeon and is one of the network’s most popular shows.
The SLIMEFEST concerts take place on Saturday, 3rd September at the Empress Ballroom in the Winter Gardens, Blackpool.
