The pro-social awards show, which was simulcast on Nickelodeon, TeenNick and Nicktoons, averaged 2.4 million viewers on Nickelodeon. The kids-targeted network posted double-digit increases in several key kids demos compared to last year’s telecast, said network officials.

TeenNick also posted double-digit increases among kids 6 to 11 and triple-digit gains on Nicktoons within the 12 to 17 demo.

The Nick Cannon-produced show, which celebrates regular kids doing exceptional things within their communities, featured musical performances by Nick Jonas, Jessie J, Meghan Trainor, Echosmith, The Vamps and Fifth Harmony.
