How long is Monster jam? How long does a Monster Jam show last?

Monster Jam is a world renowned monster truck competition that judges the drivers and their cars on various skills, tricks, and even races. Unlike some other monster truck events, there's no demolition derby aspect to this competition. On average, Monster Jam events last two hours, which also includes the 15-20 minute halftime. Every Monster Jam production will include the following competitions: Racing, 2 Wheel Skills, and Freestyle.

How much are Monster Jam tickets?

Monster Jam has locations all over the U.S., so you won't have to go to great lengths to get to any particular show. However, there are some things you'll still want to take note of and be prepared for. For example, the first priority is finding tickets to the event itself. Monster Jam tickets themselves can vary in price depending on location, seating location, if it's a finals event, etc.

While Monster Jam Houston is probably one of the more well known locations for this competition, there are multiple cities that host the event. This includes, but isn't limited to:

Monster Jam Anaheim

Monster Jam Atlanta

Monster Jam Denver

Monster Jam Detroit

Monster Jam Orlando

Monster Truck Jam tickets are available as much as 6 months in advance of the events, so be sure to check the Monster Jam schedule to find tickets for the next event near you!

What to wear to Monster Jam

When attending an event like this, you do want to take into consideration what you wear. First and foremost, it's important to be comfortable; with dirt arenas, and arena style seating to match, you'll want to wear practical shoes to make sure you can navigate the steps without tripping. As a casual, made for the whole family style event, formalwear is not required, and casual attire is encouraged. Just keep in mind that if an outfit is deemed unapproved by the event, it can result in denied admittance or ejection from the event.

If you plan on bringing along your mini monster truck fans for some fun, some people suggest bringing protective earmuffs or headphones, as the sounds from Monster Jam trucks and reverb in the arenas can get pretty loud.

How much do Monster Jam drivers make?

With the amount of skill and talent this sort of action sport can take, it's no wonder, and certainly the hope, that drivers in this competition get paid fairly well. Salaries for Monster Jam Truck drivers can range from approximately $33,000 in Louisiana, to $53,000 in Hawaii.

It's an event you'll definitely not want to pass up on if given the opportunity, and if anything else, you can enjoy the city surrounding the event, and spending time with the people you go with. Just don't forget to sit back, relax, and have a good time!
