Moody Gardens Announces Launch of New One-of-a-Kind SpongeBob SubPants Interactive Experience

GALVESTON, Texas, Feb. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Moody Gardens' newest interactive experience will take guests on an undersea voyage with the debut of the SpongeBob SubPants Adventure attraction this Memorial Day weekend, May 23-25. This first-of-its-kind, choose-your-own-path, immersive experience lets visitors join their favorite underwater friends from Nickelodeon's SpongeBob SquarePants for a submarine adventure to Bikini Bottom.

The SpongeBob SubPants Adventure lets guests explore the world of Bikini Bottom through a 3D digital show that features live narration; a unique interactive option that allows guests to choose which locations to visit on their underwater journey; and exciting 4D sensory elements, such as wind, seat sensors, bubbles, leg ticklers and scents that make the aquatic town come to life.

Before guests descend into the deep sea on the SpongeBob SubPants Adventure "Le Plunger" submarine, the audience will encounter real sea stars, squids and sponges as they learn about ocean and sea-life conservation. They will then dive towards Bikini Bottom for a unique, multi-sensory experience, having real-time conversations with their tour guide, Patrick Star; traveling to destinations, like Jellyfish Fields, Rock Bottom, Sandy's Treedome and Goo Lagoon; and encountering other surprises from SpongeBob SquarePants, Sandy and Plankton.

"Our objective is always to provide that fun, educational experience that is so important to parents and kids, and the SpongeBob SubPants Adventure attraction will achieve this in a new and exciting way," said Moody Gardens President and CEO John Zendt, who added that Nickelodeon serves as the ideal partner in creating memorable family experiences. "This is real engagement. Visitors will be able to interact with the Nickelodeon characters on a digital stage as they have never been able to do before." 

In keeping with Moody Gardens' mission statement to educate the public through the utilization of nature in the advancement of conservation, rehabilitation, recreation and research, the attraction gives guests a chance to explore a diverse ecosystem and be educated on the importance of preserving and protecting this fascinating biosphere.
