Among the competitors are four Kansas natives – husband and wife, Jimmy and Dawn Creten, and father and daughter, Darren and Kaylyn Migues. The Monster Jam stadium event will bring a new level of high-flying, four-wheel excitement to the entire family with racing, two-wheel skills and freestyle competitions. Tickets are on sale now. 


Audiences will see 14 massive Monster Jam trucks at Arrowhead Stadium, five of which are making their Kansas City debut: Bad Company, Earthshaker, Great Clips Mohawk Warrior, Jailbird and Nitro Menance. They join nine trucks returning to the city, including fan favorites Grave Digger, Zombie and El Toro Loco. The lineup of trucks and premier athletes vying to be the Kansas City champion are:

Monster Jam drivers are trained, world-class male and female athletes who have mastered not only the physical strength and mental stamina needed to compete, but the vital dexterity to control 12,000-pound machines capable of doing backflips, vertical two-wheel skills and racing at speeds up to 70 miles per hour to produce jaw-dropping, live motor sports action seen around the world. Now across all Monster Jam events, fans in every city will have the chance to vote for the winner in the two-wheel and freestyle competitions by real-time, in-stadium fan voting on their smartphones.  


Fans also have the opportunity to get up close and personal to the Monster Jam trucks and drivers for photo opportunities and autographs by purchasing a Pit Party pass or a Pit Party Early Access pass, which allows them early entry to the Pit Party. An event ticket is also required.
