The 9th Annual Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards were held on May 11, 1996 at Universal Studios in Universal City, California. Rosie O'Donnell and Whitney Houston served as hosts. Previous slime victim Mark Curry also appeared as a special guest announcer. Houston became the first celebrity to host more than one Kids' Choice Awards.

The stage for this year’s show took on a playground aesthetic. The venue was transformed into Nickelodeon’s “Playground Zero”, featuring slides, half-pipes, a firemen’s pole, and even an “extreme-screen” where VR adventures could take place. Meanwhile, Rosie hosted from aboard the KCA Hall of Fame cruise in New York City. This is the last event to use the original KCA logo.
