Nickelodeon (Asia)

Nickelodeon is a pan-Asian pay television channel operated by Paramount Networks EMEAA and owned by Paramount International Networks, based in Singapore and broadcast to audiences in Southeast Asia and certain regions in Oceania like Polynesia and Papua New Guinea. The channel was launched on 1998 and mainly broadcasts original series from Nickelodeon's namesake television channel in the United States.

The channel was first launched in the Middle East and North Africa in June 1996 as a 24-hour English-language TV channel.

Since 1996, Nickelodeon decided to reach the popular channel to the Philippines, Japan, Russia & the CIS, and Asia. One of their shorts were Right Here, Right Now (based on the 1993 Nick US shorts) and their ID's were by FRONT. Broadcasts in Singapore started on 9 March 2001. In 2003, it became a part of NickSplat (Nickelodeon's headquarters in Asia).

On October 11, 2006, Viacom's subsidiary MTV Networks Asia Pacific set up a new unit to manage a feed based in Singapore. Nickelodeon was launched in Singapore and expanded its services in Southeast Asia and Polynesia. Nickelodeon Philippines, Nickelodeon Pakistan, and Nickelodeon India started working independently. They started their new website in 2003.

In 2018, the channel launched in both Sri Lanka (via Dialog TV) and Maldives, replacing Nickelodeon India due to the said feed's heavy localization.

On August 1, 2023, the channel started to utilize the Splat 2023 branding used internationally.

In the Middle East, Nickelodeon Asia was made available to Middle Eastern viewers in the region via the ABS-2 satellite and it was broadcast in English. Previously, the channel was made available to Middle Eastern viewers in the region via the Palapa C2 and D satellites until 2010, when Nickelodeon Asia left Palapa D.[citation needed]

Available in English, Nickelodeon Asia was launched in the Philippines on April 1, 2011 as a dedicated Filipino Nickelodeon channel.
