  • General information
    General The optional perimeter attractions at the event may attract queues and ALL are chargeable. Dogs (other than assistance dogs) are not permitted. Monsterslam is not a seated event. This is a hugely popular summer event and queues for some attractions, especially the Mini Monster Trucks and Extreme Express Monster Truck Ride are to be expected, just as you would expect queues at any popular theme park rides or attractions during the summer period. Mini Monster Trucks cost £8 per child or £10 for one child sitting with one adult. (price correct at time of writing). Providing your hand has been stamped by our staff you may leave and re-enter the venue. The nearest ATM is located over one mile away from the venue and around a 30 minute round trip to/from the car park which may result in you missing some of the performances. Please ensure you have sufficient funds for the event to avoid any unnecessary trips. Main Arena Strictly NO picnic blankets allowed around the arena viewing area (there is plenty of picnic space away from the viewing area) If you are unable to see the performance, please move around the arena to find a suitable viewing spot. All of the performances take place with very large Monster Trucks and motorbikes that jump 30ft+ into the air and often, to get a better view, you may be better placed standing further back from the arena if there are people directly in front of you. Visibility complaints will not be upheld as at all previous shows we have patrolled and monitored visibility within the event and performances can be seen by either moving to a more suitable position or standing further back. Alcohol, security and anti-social behaviour A strict zero-tolerance policy applies in terms of any anti-social behaviour and you will be asked to leave by our security team should any any-social behaviour be witnessed.
