        Monster Jam, an action-packed motorsports experience for families, returns to Toledo for a high-octane weekend at The Huntington Center Friday, Aug. 27 through Sunday, Aug. 29 at full capacity.
        Making its first Toledo stop following a pandemic pause, Monster Jam features the ultimate mix of high-flying action and four-wheel excitement.
        Tickets are available at ticketmaster.com.
        As the pandemic recovery progresses, Monster Jam continues to monitor changes to government mandates, public health guidelines and industry standards and is working closely with venue partners to adjust protocols for the safety and wellness of guests. Unvaccinated guests are asked to wear a face covering, as recommended by the CDC. More information about the Huntington Center’s safety policy is available at huntingtoncentertoledo.com/venue/faq/.
        At Monster Jam Pit Parties on Saturday from 10:30 a.m.-noon and Sunday 9:30-11 a.m., guests can see the massive trucks up close, watch live pre-race interviews and participate in Q&As with the drivers, get pre-signed autograph cards, take pictures and enjoy other family-friendly fun. Face covering rules apply.
        Toledo fans will witness a fierce battle for the event championship with each skilled Monster Jam athlete tearing up the dirt with gravity-defying feats in 12,000-pound Monster Jam trucks going head-to-head for points in Freestyle, the Skills Challenge and Racing competitions.  Plus, fans can become part of the action by voting for the winner in the Skills Challenge and Freestyle competitions via real-time, in-stadium fan voting on their smartphones.
        The all-star truck lineup will feature multiple fan favorites including Tyler Menninga in the legendary Grave Digger, the truck that redefined the phrase “big air” and holds the Guinness World Record title for the highest ramp jump.
        Entering her sixth season behind the wheel of Whiplash, Brianna Mahon will look to win the crowd over and take home the title.
        Buddy Tompkins will aim to crush the competition in Razin Kane while Jack Brown returns in FTI Torque. Travis Mowery vies for the championship in Extreme Attitude and Kaylyn Migues in Jailbird rounds out this epic six-truck lineup.
        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 motorsports action seen around the world.
        Show times are 7 p.m. Friday; 1 and 7 p.m. Saturday and noon and 5:30 p.m. Sunday.
