Okay, Salt Lake City—are you ready to go full throttle this 4th of July weekend? Because the Monster Jam World Finals is roaring into Rice-Eccles Stadium for the first time ever, and it’s happening July 4–5, 2025!

This isn’t your average monster truck show. This is the ultimate championship. The big leagues. The best drivers and trucks in the world all in one place, throwing down in four action-packed competitions over two days of non-stop excitement. And lucky us—it’s happening right here at home, over a weekend that’s already made for celebration!

Monster Jam World Finals is where legends are made. It’s the highest level of competition in the Monster Jam world—and you can feel the energy the moment the engines start. Over two epic days, drivers compete in Racing, Freestyle, High Jump, and the Two-Wheel Skills Challenge, pushing the limits of gravity and power with every spin, flip, and launch.

These trucks aren’t just big—they’re beasts. And the stunts they pull off? Unreal. You’ll go from gasping to cheering to laughing at how wild it all is, in the best possible way.

Here’s the thing: this isn’t just a kids’ event. It’s not even just a “dad and sons” event (although, yes, they’ll love it too). Monster Jam World Finals is something that every generation of your family can get behind.

The sheer power of the trucks. The strategy and skill behind the races. The crowd energy. The Pit Party where you can get up close with the drivers and their larger-than-life trucks. Whether you’re 7 or 70, there’s something thrilling about seeing a 12,000-pound truck soar through the air and stick the landing.

We’ve got teens who are totally into the extreme sports vibes. We’ve got grandparents who are all in on the racing. And yes, I fully admit I was cheering louder than anyone when Grave Digger nailed that freestyle backflip last time we went.

This is one of those rare events that brings everyone together for a wild, high-octane experience you’ll be talking about all year.
