What can attendees expect at Monster Jam?
There’s so much to do and see at Monster Jam! This two-day event is action packed with fun and thrilling events.
All the fun starts at the Monster Jam Pit Party, where attendees can see the massive trucks up close and personal, meet the incredible drivers and crews, get autographs and take pictures. This thrilling experience is the only place to get an insider’s look at how these 12,000-pound trucks are built to stand up to the competition.
Then, you can watch the truly unbelievable competitions. Depending on which day you go, you can expect to see:
- The Racing Competition – “The trucks race along a prescribed course with the first advancing in the competition. Winners advance until only two trucks remain with the finals determining the racing champion. Racing may be preceded by qualifying to establish brackets.”
- The Skills Challenge – “Monster Jam drivers will have multiple opportunities to perform the best stunt, bringing at least two wheels into the air. This is a judged competition.”
- The Donut Competition – “Trucks perform in designated flat areas with the objective to rotate the truck as many times and as quickly as possible. This is a judged competition.”
- The Freestyle Competition – “Competitors perform tricks and stunts throughout the floor area at a designated time. This is a judged competition.”
Just how big are these monster trucks?
They’re truly massive. Each Monster Jam truck is about 10.5 feet tall, 12.5 feet wide, 17 feet long and weighs in at around 12,000 pounds. That’s a ton of metal flying through the air!
