The machinery madness is not just confined to the big trucks and will also feature junior trucks, a wheel standing Jeep, a crazy WWII tank, and world class back flipping Freestyle Motocross riders.

Monster Truck Mania promoter Phillip Christensen said the event would be the hottest ticket in town this weekend, with something for the whole family.

“Our main attraction is the world’s newest monster truck named Devils Taxi which was built down in Victoria, that is sure to have the crowds on their feet,” Ms Christensen said.

Mr Christensen said that if parents wanted to make themselves popular with their children for the rest of 2022, a monster truck ticket was the way to do it.

“There’s no doubt that this sort of stuff is just so popular for kids,” he said.

“There is nothing better you could do with your children between three and ten years of age, or older, than whiz them along to the monster truck show.”

Tickets to the event are available through Ticketek.
