An Action-packed Weekend of Family Fun is Revving Up

SACRAMENTO REGION, CA (MPG) – This. Is. MONSTER JAM™!  The most action-packed motorsports experience for families in the world today returns to Sacramento an adrenaline-charged weekend at the Golden 1 Center on August 5–7, 2022.  Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, Monster Jam features world-class athletes locked in intense competitions of speed and skill. 

The popular Monster Jam Pit Party fan experience will return to Sacramento on both Saturday and Sunday, where fans can see the massive trucks up close, meet their favorite drivers and crews, take pictures and enjoy other family-friendly fun.  This unique experience is the only place that allows people to get up close access to the Monster Jam teams and get an insider’s look at how these trucks are built to stand up to the competition.  Pit Passes are priced at $20 each for this VIP experience.

Sactown motorsports fans will witness heated rivalries, high-flying stunts and fierce head-to-head battles for the Event Championship.  Engineered to perfection, the 12,000-pound Monster Jam trucks push all limits going head-to-head for points in Freestyle, Skills, Donuts and Racing competitions.  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. 

The Sacramento event features eight skilled athletes fighting for the championship while putting on a spectacle, constantly innovating and always entertaining.  Tyler Menninga gets behind the wheel of the legendary black and green wrecking machine Grave Digger®, celebrating its 40th anniversary this year.  Elvis Lainez grabs the bull by the horns driving El Toro Loco®, Bernard Lyght makes his debut in Megalodon® and military veteran Kayla Blood in Soldier Fortune™ look to lock in the event championship.
