Kids love trucks. Big trucks, small trucks and even high-octane monster trucks. And there’s a good reason why. These beasts on wheels are an engine-revving, dirt-churning, car-crushin’, high-flying blast for truck lovers of all ages. Race through our guide to where to see, hear, smell, touch, and even ride in monster trucks!

No Limits Monster Truck Tour: March 2016

If your mini monster truck groupie must have monster trucks in March, you’ll have to set off for Pasco (just three and a half hours from Seattle). The No Limits Monster Trucks Tour is three days of non-stop monster truck madness as well as arena cross races, truck and tractor pulls, motorcycle jumpers, mud bogs and more. Everything your vehicle-loving kiddo could wish for and more!

Good to Know: Monster trucks to watch out for this year include Ghost Ryder, Heart Breaker, Bounty Hunter and Rat Attack.

Good to Know: In Mud Bogging, 4x4 drivers battle it out to make it through the mud - without getting stuck.

Good to Know
Monster truck shows are LOUD, so make sure your kiddies have ear protection (highly recommended for grownups too). Ear plugs are fine, but we’ve found ear muffs work best for kids as they don’t fall off so easily. Psst! If you forget to bring a pair, most shows have them for sale near the concession stands.
