Ford Arena will host the return of Monster Nation for three shows beginning Friday, March 10, at 8 p.m., and Saturday, March 11, at 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. What has become the premier monster truck event promises to continue wowing fans with six 10,000-pound monster machines and much, much more jam packed into two hours of high-flying horsepower.

Tickets start at $23 and can be purchased online at ticketmaster.com or the Ford Park box office at 5115 Interstate 10 South in Beaumont.

The legendary flying dump truck Dirt Crew is back to defend the Monster Nation Freestyle and Racing title, but the truck will have its work cut out as a stacked field of Monsters is gunning for the title, including the world record holder for fastest monster truck and longest monster truck jump, Bad Habit, along with Hurricane Force, Tailgator and introducing in Southeast Texas – the all-new concept trucks Dozer and Maximus.

The tailgate-ripping Wheelie Contest is first, where each drive attempts to stand his 10-foot-tall truck straight in the air. The next event is elimination-style head-to-head racing around an oval course. But what will certainly complete the scene is the no-rules, no holds barred destruction Freestyle competition. The entire floor of the arena will be open season for the Monster Nation competition.

If the “Wrecking Crew” competition isn’t enough, the high-flying Monster Nation’s Areal Assault Freestlyle Motocross will be pulling off incredible tricks in the rafters of Ford Arena. The stars of Monster Nation FMX are out to decide who can pull the big tricks and claim freestyle supremacy while 40-feet in the air.
