What is SpongeBob's real age?
This shows a birth date of July 14, 1986, which would make him 13. Hillenburg stated later in an interview that it was only in a dream and cannot be confirmed, joking that Spongebob is "50 in sponge years".
How old are the characters from Spongebob? Spongebob and Patrick are about 21–26 years old. We know this because in the Kamp Koral show, Patrick and Spongebob look to be about 6–8 years old.
In the episode "Sleepy Time," fans get a glimpse of SpongeBob's drivers license, which lists his birthday as July 14, 1986. Given the episode aired in 2000, this puts SpongeBob at 14 years old -- if the show's timeline aligns with the episode air dates, that is.
The network's executives wanted SpongeBob to be a child in school, but Hillenburg preferred SpongeBob to be an adult character.
