Monster Jam is back this weekend!

The Advanced Auto Parts Monster Jam is returning once again to the Florida Citrus Bowl this January 28th. As is years past, monster truck fans can experience the high-energy, fast-paced vehicular extravaganza featuring 16 monster trucks. More than 60,000 fans will gather to witness the trucks compete in side-by-racing and the fan-favorite freestyle competition. The highlight of this year, however, is the celebration of legendary monster truck Grave Digger. The truck and driver, Dennis Anderson, will be honored by Feld Motor Sports as they celebrate the 30th anniversary.

Highlighting the Grave Digger 30th Anniversary celebration, which starts in January, will be three specially designed Grave Digger monster trucks, a traveling fan experience, limited edition merchandise, and interactive promotions.  Monster Jam fans can get up close to the newly designed versions of Grave Digger and participate in the traveling Grave Digger 30th Anniversary Experience, as part of the Monster Jam pre-show Party in the Pits.

On Saturday, January 28th, get your fill of the Monster Jam experience, as this year’s festivities feature an early gate time and multiple fan experiences.

From 2pm - 5pm, fans can go behind the scenes for the World’s Ultimate Pit Party. Pick up a Pit Pass at participating Orlando Southern Ford dealers and head to Tinker Field to meet the drivers, take pictures with the trucks and more.

After the Pit Party, head to the Citrus Bowl at 5pm to get ready for the 1,500 horsepower, 10,000-pound monster truck competition with side-by-side racing, and the fan-favorite freestyle competition, where each monster truck gets 90 seconds to “wow” the crowd with huge jumps, wheelies, truck-spinning donuts, and the destruction of cars, vans, buses, motor homes and more.
