LIVE COMPANY GROUP AGREEMENT WITH NICKELODEON UK LIMITED
Live Company Group plc (AIM: LVCG, "the Company") is pleased to
announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Brick Live International
Limited, has entered into an agreement with Nickelodeon UK Limited
("Nickelodeon") to produce themed tours associated with the
Nickelodeon brand, including the Nick Jr. brand, throughout the UK,
Ireland, the Channel Islands and Isle of Man (the "Agreement").
Nickelodeon UK & Ireland Network is available in over 13
million cable and satellite homes and now reaches more than 10
million viewers a month. Launched in 1993, the top-performing
Nickelodeon network comprises seven dedicated entertainment
channels for kids aged 4-15 and their families.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Nickelodeon has granted the
Group rights to produce and create themed tours associated with
certain Nickelodeon and Nick Jr. properties. The Agreement is for a
five year term, through to the end of 2024, and the Group will pay
Nickelodeon a royalty fee based on the revenues of the themed
tours.
The first themed tour will be based on PAW Patrol, one of Nick
Jr.'s most watched television shows, in Europe and America, by
young children, with the tour expected to feature a collection of
15 models of the show's most popular characters including Ryder,
Chase, Marshall and Sky and is expected to launch in summer
2019.
Following the launch of the PAW Patrol tour, a set of 15 models,
featuring a host of Nick Jr.'s most popular characters from its hit
shows Top Wing and Shimmer and Shine is expected to be launched in
autumn 2019. Further models based on the Nickelodeon brand will be
launched in 2020.
David Ciclitira, Executive Chairman of Live Company Group, said
"We are thrilled to have Nickelodeon, a leading player in the
family entertainment sector, as our newest partner to deliver
Nickelodeon branded BRICKLIVE touring shows in the UK and Ireland.
We very much look forward to developing the partnership and to
develop new tour concepts, as we seek to continue to expand the
BRICKLIVE brand.
This partnership marks a significant milestone for the Group and
working with Nickelodeon over the next five years; we are extremely
excited to create new themed tours that will be exhibited
throughout the UK and Ireland. This partnership reinforces the
Group's growth strategy and investment in building new touring
assets to appeal to audiences around the world".
Virginia Monaghan, VP Marketing, Commercial and Events,
Nickelodeon UK and Northern and Eastern Europe, said: "BRICKLIVE is
the perfect partner for creating a new way to celebrate our much
loved characters. The scale of the models is so impressive - we
can't wait for PAW Patrol fans to meet the pups' toy brick
counterparts this summer and expanding upon our partnership in the
future".
