On Saturday, 1/7/12 from 11:30 AM -1 PM there will be a Party in the Pits where fans can view all of the trucks close-up and meet the drivers. Pit Passes are FREE at participating Taco Bell locations, or can be purchased for $10 at the Nationwide Arena box office or by phone at 800-745-3000. A ticket for the January 7, 2:00 pm show is required with a Pit Pass for entry.

All tickets for the Friday night show are just $14 (excluding premium seating). Saturday tickets cost $21 along with a limited number of $52 Front Row and $27 Gold Circle Seats. Purchase early and save, as all prices increase $2 on day of show. Tickets may be purchased at the Nationwide Arena Ticket Office, at all Ticketmaster locations, online at www.ticketmaster.com or by phone at (800) 745-3000.

3 Melissa Banyots December 18, 2011 at 4:44 PM: Being a mommy of young 2 boys, I think they would love this! It would be great for my hubby and I to take them before the new baby comes. Growing up a girly-girl, I never thought I’d be excited at the thought of seeing something called “Gravedigger.” ha ha But I guess being the mom of boys changes things! Thanks you!

51 Kacie Bowens January 1, 2012 at 10:47 PM: If I win I would take my 2 year old son,husband,and 2 teenage brothers.My brothers have never been to Monster Jam. I feel like everyone should experience Monster Jam at least once in their life. Also my son just turned 2 yrs old and loves monster trucks. We actually let him hold his Grave Digger in our family pics cause he wouldn’t take the pic w/o him. It would be nice to be able to take my son and siblings to see Monster Jam for the time.
